Natural Selection Seems Insufficient

A tangible object is BY DEFINITION a collision-able object. (Just like a square is by definition an example of a rectangle).
Conversely an intangible object is BY DEFINITION a non-collision-object.  Therefore an intangible will never push tangible matter. Period.

Yet you endlessly and dishonestly repeat the accusation that my incredulity alone is driving this conclusion.

Your incredulity about the opposite is the only thing holding you to these principles. And I'm pretty sure those aren't a part of the definitions.
