A Scientific Basis for Spirit

[Abracadabra]

Yet you proposed it as a scientific basis for what you define as spirit. One of the key features of science is that the experiments not only must be repeatable by everyone but the conclusions resulting from those experiments must be observable as well. The whole point of experiments is to eliminate ambiguity. It's no good my performing your experiment and getting a totally different result, because it proves nothing.

(ETA: Incidentally, another key part of the scientific method is peer review, in which your experiments and conclusions are tested to destruction. This in diluted form is what you're experiencing now.)

I'm sure your right.

There clearly are things that are totally beyond the capabilities of science to ever know. We were never guaranteed that science should be able to address every possible question. So perhaps you're right. Calling upon the scientific method to address these types of questions is a pretty futile thing to do.

We'll just have to accept that some things can never be known I guess.
