The question is essentially asking "how do you know you're not imagining things?" Your little rabbit trail on testing nonmaterial things has nothing to do with the topic.

You and him both implied that the "feeling" mentioned above is material and therefore should have scientific evidence. It is not material, and Brian seemed to acknowledge that here (which admittedly has me confused about his stance). You, on the other hand, are maintaining that the nonmaterial has nothing to do with this "feeling" at all-- that it is a result of chemicals in the brain. Am I correct?
