Where do they come from?

The brain.

Or the stomach if you're hungry.

Or the nether regions if you're horny.

But really, just the brain.

A thought isnt physical though. Until someone has a thought an brings it into the physical

They don't come from anywhere, you "create" them.
A thought doesn't exist for more than one single moment, a thought is an electric pulse on your neurons, its like a computer processing data, its all instant micro calculations, immediate conclusions through analyzes of information captured by your senses.

Also your brain processes data/thinks most of the times sub consciously without your effort or will to do so.
And sub consciously stores certain information, most of the times you don't need to say "im gonna memorize this".

Yeah but what made you have the thought of posting in this thread. Thoughts just come in you do nothing to get them. You are constantly getting thoughts and it is uncontrolable.

if you can see, hear,taste, touch,smell then you have the basic ingredients to have a thought.

Very very true.. If I may let me suggest you to watch this video:
I watched it some time ago when it came out and its pretty efficient for 18 minutes of time.



You can also watch a couple more related videos from that guy, he is basically the king of knowledge when it comes to brains functionality.

Thoughts are electrical impulses in the brain. I assure you, they are physical.

Vouch.

Without the capacity of the physiological, there is no psychological. It's completely dependent on the physical being there to function.

i think hes asking more like "why do we think?".
