You began a good journey where something clicked for you and you were honest to admit it.
I suggest searching for more proofs. You can easily understand them once one clicks, the rest start clicking.
There is plenty of proofs.
And then keep searching proofs till you find your way.

Not really. It's an argument from ignorance. Just because you don't know how immaterial and material things interact does not mean they cannot do so.
It's not as simple. He says there is no interconnection, and that is true. There has to be some interconnection, something in common, some meeting point for one to cause the other.
But immaterial and material are exactly opposites by definition. We know immaterial because we are immaterial (our personality), we then imagine everything we see with our five senses is material, which means the opposite of the only thing we know is real, and than believe there is interaction between the two.
There is no possible interaction. Everything speaks, everything is alive, everything is spiritual.
