If you truly understood scientific explanation then I doubt your next statement about finality of faith in the notion that everything that can be discovered has already been discovered would have appeared. Science is literally the art of exploring and discovering.
I fully expect that there will be a time with all this nonsense about spiritual energies are no longer accepted by the masses especially considering the brain is pretty damn well understood at this point and animals exist along all levels of brain function from intelligent self aware apes to primitive brains.
Again, I would like to reiterate this fact that you claim to have had an experience that can ONLY be explained by the Christian deity, but you can't substantiate that claim one bit. Which leads me to believe that you very well just made all this shit up to make yourself feel better about life.
You kind of made my point for me in that first paragraph. I expect someone at some point to "discover" energies that we have not been able to discover scientifically at the present moment. You seem to only be willing to believe things that are already discovered and discount all accounts that lie outside of that ever rising tide.
I can respect that, to an extent, but since I have had numerous types of experiences that cannot be explained under the current scientific paradigm I must concede the limits of our scientific progress and knowledge presently.
I am unable to only accept what has been demonstrated in a laboratory seeing as how scientific progress just keeps on ticking by and things we take for granted now would have been unbelievable even 100 years ago. I have no reason to doubt this will continue to astound and shift our paradigms,
Also I have not really made the claim highlighted in red. This is an assumption you have made based on our limited dialogue. My thinking is much more sophisticated than that actually.
