For science, you need a set of empirical observations to work from first. The next step is to propose what a cause for the observations, and a test that can reliably tell you if you are right or wrong. The important part in the testing phase is that there has to be potential results from testing that could prove you wrong. If there is no possible outcome that you would consider as proving the non-existence of Holy Spirit, then what you have is a religious belief and not a scientific proposition.
Bah. There's no possible outcome that would prove the non existence of anything in science, including the non existence of gravitons and/or string theory. That's a completely bogus argument.
You have never heard of the null hypothesis?

In terms of explaining the force carrier particle/field associated with the experience, my money is on the EM field.

In terms of the carrier particle aspect of the debate, can't we turn on and off the EM fields in the helmet and verify a null hypothesis?
That is up to people who are claiming that there is a Holy Spirit. Would they accept that as a null hypothesis?
I dunno. What would string theorists accept as a null hypothesis, or would they accept one at all?
This thread isn't about your obsession with other parts of physics.
If there is no possible outcome that you would consider as proving the non-existence of Holy Spirit, then what you have is a religious belief and not a scientific proposition.
If I've said it once I've said it a thousand times: one group of people doing very bad science does not excuse bad science.Apparently all of physics is not a scientific proposition by your definition, just a religious belief.

No. Science can only explain things that actually manifest in reality.
Unlike space expansion, gravitons, and string theory?
