And I see you were unwilling to explain the "dynamics" of the magical kingdom of your invisible friend you claim is in our midst. Not even an "I don't know" from you.

Dr. Rational again, with only brain summaries of things you have no experience of.
A yes, these dynamics. Please explain these dynamics in detail please, as you seem to be privy to all sorts of insights about them.Although it is in your midst you have zero awareness of the Spiritual Dynamics going on.
Strange, I'm not the one making outrageous claims with nothing to back them up. I'd say the dilemma is all yours.You are in a clear dilemma in life and don't know it, Dr. Intelligent. Your wisdom has become worthless. You have the wrong wisdom (James 3:15).
Ironic as I've never seen you actually progress beyond outrageous claims of spiritual awareness in any forum discussion. You've practically pitched a tent on square one.Back to square one or continue down your Dr. Arrived path?
.Yes, sadly I don't have the metaphysical experiences you do, but then I'm probably not putting the same petrol in my engine as you, so to speak.

With your intellect you have concluded the Kingdom of Heaven in our midst as imaginary. Imaginary is one of your favorite words to apply to realities you have zero awareness of.
Your dilemma prevails. Your blindness can only temporarily make the Spiritual Realm go away. What a position in life to be in, Dr. Arrived. Talking about temporal mindset!
Tell us all again how Eternal Beings in our midst don't exist. Show us your blindness again!

So basically you haven't got the faintest idea what a soul/spirit might be, how you might distinguish it from your imagination, or even what part of you is supposed to survive your death.
Discovery of quantum vibrations in 'microtubules' inside brain neurons supports controversial theory of consciousness -- ScienceDaily
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news and burst your bubble, but there's actually a number well defined mathematical models for ""soul" just like for 'dark energy' or inflation. There's even more *empirical evidence* (on Earth evidence) for soul too!
The fact you don't *like* those mathematical models or you *disagree* with the so called 'evidence' is irrelevant. Compared to half the nonsense that comes from hypothetical physics, you have absolutely nothing to complain about.
"Many orthodox people speak as though it were the business of sceptics to disprove received dogmas rather than of dogmatists to prove them.
Why would that burst our bubble? You think we want there not to be an afterlife? Plus, even if you would consider that energy to be a soul, it doesn't prove it continues to exist with our memories after death.
I am not real sure what you mean here by paleontology having a difficult time in this context. Could you clarify a bit?No. Not in secular universities. Even in Christian universities, old earth concept is still prevailed in geological study.
Paleontology is a study in geology "based on" evolution (this is probably what you meant when paleontology is applied to well drilling) . However, it is not really necessary to do that. Without the idea of evolution, paleontology will still work. paleontology often has difficult time because it tried hard to stick with the evolution idea.
Really all theories are models so the differentiation is not overly important. If your way of looking at it does not conflict with the evidence I have no problem at all with how you find a way for it all to work for you. Whatever works, works. My theology is the way it all makes sense to me and by necessity is my personal way of looking at it.At higher level geological study (anywhere), the old earth is only a model. Within the model, geological features can be explained in a reasonable way. The emphasis is on the modeling of interested processes in stead of taking the old earth as a truth. For example, I have no problem to talk to geologists that this rock is 35 million years old. I said that because the 35 m.y. number can explain the process, not because I seriously think the rock is really 35 m.y. old.
OK, since we have no idea of how times passes in Heaven, there I see no conflict here.One year in the Heaven is 1000 years on the earth. This is the real model of the old earth in my mind.
Sure, except when it comes to your bogus unsupported claims about exotic matter even *after* three straight falsifications in the lab.Compared to Penrose's concept of *soul*, which did/does make predictions that can be tested in the lab, and have been *found* in the lab too, you guys have *nothing* to complain about.
We aren't complaining,
So basically you haven't got the faintest idea what a soul/spirit might be, how you might distinguish it from your imagination, or even what part of you is supposed to survive your death.
I don't understand why people think we aren't open to being proven wrong.
I honestly hope I am in some cases, such as the existence of an afterlife (well, nonexistence for me, I suppose, is more accurate). Links to soul study please.

The amusing part is that if you did let your falsified theory die a normal empirical death after those string of lab falsifications, I'd let it go too. In fact I'd let it got in a heartbeat. Unfortunately that SUSY horse died three times in the last 18 months and you keep pointing at the gamma rays in the sky and whipping on that dead horse and claiming "Get up you lazy horse"!
We get your position Michael, loud and clear.
