Maybe it’s too much to say people who experienced this stuff are delusional? I know a lot of them personally and they live a normal life, but they keep saying testimonies about holy experience, that God talks to them etc.

    You can try to challenge spiritual thinking all you want, but you have not provided any arguments against it yet.

    If you don’t want to debate philosophy, it is fine. I can’t say I agree with your understanding of historical philosophers in any case, and it does eem rather pointless.

      You can’t make anything true through argument. Spiritualism has a burden of proof that has never been met. There are no excuses for this, and until you can meet that burden, there is no further discussion to be had.

        You can’t prove anything to be definitively true. Materialism especially.

        Your worldview is just as unporven.

          Thank you for demonstrating you are not here for a rational conversation. Now everyone knows why you’re here.

          Goodbye.

            I could say the same to you. FYI, rational does not mean “something I reckon is true”.

            It is easy to just say your worldview is rational and dismiss everyone who disagree with you on that basis. Making good arguments is much more difficult, isn’t it?

            Goodbye.
