He never said he proved it, he said it's as valid as a theory as the mind being the producer as far the evidence goes, and shows why it's possible/plausible.
But when I read the links, there is potential proof, which Drich has not presented and I have to go research.
Drich is saying your assumptions are by looking at things from one perspective with data, when there is other perspectives that go with the data as well, and can have potential proofs, but we all know people are not interested in searching for evidence to see if the alternative theory holds stronger.
That's his point and it's solid, and true.
Which specific data are you referring to here, Mystic? I don't think anybody has denied that it's possible in theory. If that's his point, well, good on him. I don't think it is, however, and think that you're just launching a dishonest apologia on his behalf. And I would have to disagree that the evidence is equivocal. The brain as producer evidence isn't conclusive, but it's better demonstrated than anything I've seen for the brain as receiver hypothesis.
The point he is making you won't search and look for evidence of the other side, whether there are solid evidence or not. This is not particular to you, but Atheists in general. You (as in you in particular) may research or you may not, but he is showing, that science is not this hard facts thing.
And that was his point. And yes good on him.
