Skeptics might be jumping to conclusions

[Transcended Dimensions]

The all knowing being was just a hypothetical example to make my point.  You are also saying that we are just biological machines and, based upon that perspective, you conclude that there is no life after death and that we are not immortal.  But that is, again, just your skeptical/materialistic position.  I am talking about the all knowing perspective of a hypothetical all knowing being.  This requires you to suspend your skeptical/materialistic perspective and be open minded towards what this hypothetical all knowing being would really say.  He might say that we are souls that leave the body based upon what the researchers say in regards to quantum physics.  Or he might say that the skeptics had it right all along and that, once we die, that is it.  So, in this hypothetical example of an all knowing being, we must suspend all our perspectives.   Christians must suspend their perspective, Buddhists must suspend their perspective, and skeptics must suspend their perspective as well.

All that means is that we should base our ideas on the best available evidence at any point in time. And the best available evidence is that we are biological machines and that paranormal phenomena are not real.

This is NOT just my skeptical position. It is a position taken by looking at the available evidence and seeing where it points. If you want to suggest an alternative position, just present the evidence.

You THINK the evidence points towards us being biological machines.  But just because you think something is true does not make it true.  Also, just because you have dedicated your life to some area of research and have become convinced this area of research speaks the truth does not make it so either.  People fall into this sort of trap all the time.  They are brought up in a certain way and are taught certain things that they think are true.  But said things could be false.  I could say the same thing in regards to the paranormal researchers as well.  Just because they believe certain things does not make them true. 

Therefore, I cannot trust anybody.  I cannot trust humanity and the things they claim are true.  I trust neither the skeptics nor the paranormal researchers.  Thus, I am left in an undecided position where I just don't know the answer one way or the other and nothing anybody says will ever convince me one way or the other.  I would have to take that full, long journey I mentioned earlier.  But, like I said before, I have no interest in researching these sorts of things.  Therefore, I can only hope that the eternal blissful afterlife of my dreams awaits me after I die.  These paranormal researchers claim that we are eternal, blissful souls, that they have the evidence for this, and I can only hope this is true.
