You are right FlatAssemble^ they aren't, but most importantly, they have nothing in common with materialism. Whatever you imagine of material existence (and it's a false imagination), itself is an idea you have. To make it material, you have to make it opposite to immaterial which is an idea as well and experience in the mind. So how does your immaterial idea create material accurate view?
IT's impossible to conceive of what a material thing would like. But more importantly, if material things exist, their nature is opposite to immateriality. And ideas are immaterial, and hence, when you imagine material, you are imagining the opposite of the only thing you perceive to exist. That is how you create materialism, you say everything I imagine of spiritual immaterialism I see of myself, I am going to assume the opposite of materialism. And hence the trait they have nothing in common is true.
If nothing is in common, how can one interfere and cause the other?
