Here are the thoughts of a scientist in the year 1500:
“There is no compelling, falsifiable evidence for the existence of electricity, radio waves, sound waves, radiation or any other invisible forces or energies. Just because some people claim to have seen lightning or claim to have experienced electric shocks from electric eels doesn’t mean we should believe their testimony. Until we come up with equipment or the machines that can measure these invisible forces we must assume that they do not exist. Nothing that the human brain experiences can be trusted until we verify it with some equipment and the scientific process. So for now, we must assume that invisible energies and forces do not exist.”
The above is what a real scientist would’ve thought in the year 1500.
That sounds pretty fucking stupid, doesn’t it?
Nope, it sounds logical and reasonable. What would be fucking stupid is if they said invisible forces were impossible and could never exist when they had no explanation for air and lightning. And I'm sure some did say that.
Despite the fact that we CURRENTLY DO NOT have the technical equipment that will detect or measure these fields it’s quite possible that millions of years of evolution has given us neurons that are able to access these fields of information that we don’t yet understand at a technical level.
It's not possible until you can demonstrate it. Does that mean it shouldn't be investigated? Of course not, science is all about gathering facts. To go back to god, there is not a single shred of evidence that shows a god of religion is possible let alone exists, let alone created this world/humans.
If some of that information in the quantum field is spiritual information then according the billions of people who have claimed to have had spiritual experiences we must assume the possibility that there is a field of energy or information that we haven’t yet discovered.
It’s very possible that some people are able to connect to spiritual energies or forces that other people are unable to connect to. It’s sad but just because you lack a connection to spiritual forces doesn’t mean that everyone else lacks that connection.
"Quantum field" in humans hasn't been proven to be true, "spiritual energy" has the same problem. You're making a lot of assumptions and that's not scientific.
But if you’re a true scientist you’re able to admit that we don’t know everything and that there are more possibilities than we can even imagine. If you don’t have this open frame of mind as a scientist, you’ll never discover anything new.
This is true. However I'm only open to the facts and evidences, not guesses or assumptions.
Finally, you seem to be implying that every spiritual person is retarded, so go fuck yourself.
I didn't even hint at that, not in that comment at least. Once again you make an assumption and react to it instead of reacting only to the facts.
