Most of reality [ the observable Universe ] is physical and non biological and was entirely so before life evolved on Earth We are part of reality but a very infinitesimal part of it and in mathematical terms an entirely insignificant part of it too. Reality-is-all-there-is where human beings are p...

The association between 'spirit' and 'breathe' Per Wiki The English word " spirit " comes from the Latin spiritus,but also "spirit, soul, courage, vigor", ultimately from a Proto-Indo-European *(s)peis. It is distinguished from Latin anima, "soul" (which nonetheless also derives from an Indo-Europea...

I have asserted the ultimate idea of God is NEVER empirical nor empirically possible, thus the idea of God ultimately cannot be proven via Science. The idea of the universe is not empirical or empirically possible. The idea of the universe cannot be proven via Science. The idea of a universe that i...

There are no absolutes Thus it is never wrong for whatever to be proven or concluded to be tentative Calling a proof tentative sounds positively oxymoronic and that is why science does not use such language Every fact and law and theory adds to the body of knowledge accumulated over time but that n...

There are no absolutes ever. Thus it is never wrong for whatever to be 'proven' or 'concluded' to be tentative. It is even possible that accepted mathematical axioms could be changed, one can never be absolute certain about it. It is well understood [by default] 'scientific knowledge' conclusions o...

The basic of spirituality is becoming able to receive the spirit. Breathing is a part of it but I could never understand why secularists refer to spirituality when they deny the energy of the Spirit. Btw did you try out the test? If in your 'control pause' period you can hold your breath in less th...

Whatever term we assign for the conclusion of scientific theories or knowledge the critical point is it must comply with requirement of the Scientific Methods There is no such thing as conclusion in relation to scientific theories as any one of them which includes the most rigorous ones could at an...

In addition, it is not an oddity, the term "prove" in relation to scientific proofs is a common usage among many people. The term "prove" in relation to science is predominantly used by non-scientists. And when it's abused - the errors are inconsequential. Scientists constantly attempt to correct t...

The reality is indifferent is a ridiculous statement because reality itself [ as defined above ] is not an entity with consciousness Which is exactly the reason for saying that it is indifferent because it is not a living thing but merely a state of eternal existence It cannot experience emotion be...

Science cannot prove anything because it is inductive and can only disprove by falsification or null hypothesis You are getting too pedantic with words. There are many perspectives to the term 'prove'. Note A rose by any other name, ... Btw, those scientist who are doing real scientific experiments...

It is very often claimed 'Islam' means peace, but it is not the case. I believe the truth must prevail rather than merely blind beliefs. Here is an interesting video which explains very clearly what "Islam" means exactly via analysis of its root elements S-L-M pictorially. https://www.youtube.com/wa...

Why do evil right wing fascists always win elections - if not now, then in the near future? .... No wonder why fascism persists even to this day. But I do wonder, why is Fascism so popular? I believe the "evil right wing" are winning because the evil left wing are relatively MORE evil. There are al...

We are discussing two things in here: (1) Time cannot be emergent (cannot have any starting point) and (2) Time cannot be eternal. This leads to a dilemma. We first discuss (1) and then (2). 1) Time is the fundamental variable of any dynamical theory. Time therefore cannot be emergent variable of a...
