If you do not know what a universal constant is, why the hell would you claim something is a universal constant that is not categorized as a universal constant? I would mention how much of my time you just wasted, but I'm afraid that was your intent.
Quote:If you are claiming that scientific discoveries dictate reality I would suggest you have just replaced "God" with "Science".
Nothing I said even hinted at that. I didn't even graduate from high school and my reading comprehension exceeds yours.
Quote:I believe there are forces which created the universe and everything within it.
Finally. A little intellectual honesty. I fucking love it. That is what you believe. Bully for you. That does not mean everyone else has to believe it or they are being illogical. You are making progress.
Quote:Science attempts to explain the universe in purely mechanical terms yet offers little speculation on how physical forces were able to create a nonphysical consciousness.
Ah, but consciousness has only been established as physical. Small steps, padawan.
Quote:It just says, after a certain number and type of complex physical interactions something nonphysical, that is consciousness, magically pops into existence.
It says no such thing.
Quote:That theory is not acceptable to me.
It's your theory. You just made it up now. No one in the scientific community is claiming any such thing, to my knowledge.
Quote:I am of the opinion that the nonphysical, or some combination of physical and nonphysical must have always existed.
I love this. Are you seeing how a turn of phrase completely changes the conversation? "I am of the opinion . . . " I feel like I just taught a monkey sign language. No offense. I really like monkeys.
Quote:I am attempting logical proofs which support my hypothesis because the science is not readily available for me to test.
That you admit it is a guess is logical. Everything else from there is not. You should have never asserted it as truth and demanded that others see it your way by way of belittling them for disagreeing with what is arguably a very wild claim.
