Intellectual Honesty vs Spiritual Claims
by Amazing1914 inour fellow poster, aguest, made the following comment in her recent post titled: hearing god/christ - not "rocket science":"because we are such physical creatures, drawn to the empirical, we have great difficulty understanding, believing or even imagining anything that is not physical or discernable by our physical senses.
"empirical" refers to that which is realized by the five senses: sight, touch, taste, smell, hearing.
to the pure empiricalist (or, experientialist, if you will), that which cannot be seen, touched, tasted, smelled or heard... with one or more of the parts of our physical bodies that perceive these... it does not exist.".
