Myself, I'm inclined to think that the idea of immaterial things having causal powers is incoherent. So even if there were immaterial things (which I very much doubt), they wouldn't make any difference to the material world.

He who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.
Mikhail Bakunin

A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything
Friedrich Nietzsche
