Quote: This tells you that there's something else, other than what you're limited to perceiving, namely, the nonphysical.No, that doesn't follow. Just because there are things that I don't perceive doesn't mean that any of it is non-physical.
Quote: Yet you say that there's no evidence for the nonphysical.As far as I know, yes.
Quote: Ok, you may not perceive the nonphysical, but you acknowledge that it must exist.No. How must it exist?
Quote: If evidence means something you can perceive, then ok, there's no evidence that you can perceive (which again refers to your ability rather than what's really there).I didn't understand this part. No evidence that I can perceive what?
Quote: But if evidence means a reason to believe, then you believe.Evidence is a reason for me to believe. And I hope to go for valid evidence before I believe.
Quote:The consciousness bit I'll give you (that's just my thing).
Irrationally holding on to it eh? Try doubting a bit. Try asking for evidence for that belief of yours until you realize "Why would it be true? Where's the evidence? Oh yeah I get it. It makes no sense to believe it truly is the case with no valid reason/evidence backing it whatsoever."
