People Addressing The Soul From A State Of Ignorance

The fact that people writing about this don’t even know how to talk outside of a materialist category, since a soul would be present only illocally, is not a material thing and therefore, has no extension in space; leaves me with NO ability to take this kind of writing and commentary seriously.

So, basically you're pissy because these scientists didn't immediately accept the unevidenced concept of a soul and work from that assumption, with no evidence? Your problem here is that these scientists did science and worked from the evidence, rather than engaging in the brand of mystical bullshit you engage in?

I hope people appreciate science, but I wish people were more conversant with some of the philosophical disciplines, such as the basic uses and function of logic and logical categories in our speaking and writing. It is really frustrating to see the mass ignorance that seems to coat nearly all of society like a wet blanket.

So your entire point is that you're frustrated that scientists aren't philosophers? Or that they'd prefer to do science, rather than wiffling on about things they can't detect?

Reading between the lines.

When can't explain something I fall back on "goddidit"

Everyone else should do the same.

I wonder how you'd have felt if the scientists had started talking about chi, or invoking gaia.

I know what you mean. We call that mass ignorance Christianity.
