A Hindu Perspective: Science vs. Spirituality

Once the evidence is in, that's the time to take things seriously. Until then, clinging to the hope that there will be evidence is foolish.

And if you want to divorce spirituality from science, then there can never be evidence. Unfalisifiable nonsense it is then.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. The essay was meant to show that science and spirituality are different realities, and in essence there is no way that sicence can provide evidence that can prove or disprove spirituality. 

"Unfalisifiable nonsensen it is then" once again the essay clearly points out that if you don't qualify yourself to understand a different reality then of course is will be nonsense to you, just like a dog would not make sense of anything a rocket scientist would say.
