. . . and then we let this new view serve as a guide for science-- what avenues we will or will not pursue next. Science has effectively killed materialism, and "physics" is in essence a set of mathematical relationships in a VIRTUAL space. It is no longer a tool which can be used to establish our instinctive material world view as correct.
I'd like to humbly suggest for anyone reading this that you MUST google "double slit experiments," "quantum entanglement" and "quantum eraser" before you even attempt to take a materialist position. It's modern science, and it must be the starting point for any meaningful discussion of reality, IMO.
Chomsky once said something like, 'Before you start asking questions about the relation between 'physical' and 'non-physical', you have to define what physical even means.'
