I certainly have the evidence yog.![]()
I never been able to touch, see or smell the mind or the consciousness but i am able to use my senses to
perceive the matter, water, light, air and space.
First off, it's locked inside heads. So there's a mundane reason for that which doesn't have anything to do with consciousness not being physical.
Second, this is an argument from ignorance and so your conclusion doesn't follow. You can't conclude things based on what you don't know or haven't seen.
So in two tries you've failed to produce good evidence for your contention. Care to try again?
Wikipedia Wrote:Argument from ignorance (Latin: argumentum ad ignorantiam), also known as appeal to ignorance (in which ignorance stands for "lack of evidence to the contrary"), is a fallacy in informal logic. It asserts that a proposition is true because it has not yet been proven false (or vice versa). This represents a type of false dichotomy in that it excludes a third option, which is that there is insufficient investigation and therefore insufficient information to prove the proposition satisfactorily to be either true or false. ... In debates, appeals to ignorance are sometimes used in an attempt to shift the burden of proof.
