[color:"orange"] i find science tend to contradict itself; one of u mentioned that science does not pretend that it doesn't have explanation for many many things (therefore implying that concepts such as spirits, God, soul cannot be merely discounted just because they're unexplained), yet it relies on empirical evidences to prove existence.
just because we have not scanned, probed, tested & experimented on what u claim as your brain, it doesn't mean it does not exist, isn't it? [/color]
I said:
Scientist always (have to) concede, that there are phenomena that science cannot explain - yet.
So - yes, that means that it does exist.
The apple falls to the earth - before Newton we did not know why, but we knew that it does. After Newton we understood why, and having opened that door, we also came to know that (and why) Earth turns around the sun.
Hence the "yet".
