It's simply not true that science has totally ruled out a spiritual essence to reality. If you believe that fine. But just because you've convinced yourself of it doesn't make it a fact.
I'll believe it when the scientific community publishes it. In fact, I'm absolutely certain that such a finding would make world news headlines.
In the meantime, you're just another person who has an opinion. Albeit a very strong one evidently.
I'm not trying to ram anything. You can stay in denial of reality as much as you like, but don't expect my sanction that yours is a valid opinion.
You're wrong. That's all there is to it.
Besides, science has not and cannot prove the "primacy of consciousness" as much as it cannot prove law of identity. Both of these are still presupposed truths for scientific inquiry to be valid.
