You mean how do I understand that to be a reality, where you do not. Why is my world view not limited to the empirically provable. The detail that Ryft was expanding on that you say you find so unsatisfactory?
What? No. That's not at all what I asked. Angels = non-empirical. Interstellar spaceship = empirical. Why? It's a pretty simple question.

What kind of evidence are you talking about?
I'll take anything if you have it. What conviced you angels et al exist? Do you even have a reason?

I never ever committed it. You misconstrued it. I don't doubt that you'll continue to accuse people of it without reason.
What then was all your talk about what is commonly accepted? Why did you reference a dictionary? What did I miss?
