Philosophical Dialogue on the Eternal Immaterial Entity Cause and the Creation of the Universe Philosopher 2: So just to make sure I am understanding your argument completely, I will go through the claims you have made based upon the fact that the universe exists and had a beginning. 1...

Philosophical Discourse on Agnosticism: Exploring Characteristics, Disagreements, and Societal Influences Philosopher 1: But agnosticism isn't a single position. It's a range. I say again, if you believe otherwise, I'm happy for you to spell out the particulars of this "position" you...

I am currently at a point where I see no practical reason to continue assuming the position of Agnosticism and call myself an Agnostic due to the ingrained consensus definition attached to it by both Theists and Atheists/Materialists (as being a subset of atheism rather than a set position in...

Philosopher 2: Atheism itself has no creed to speak of. It is simply a position which has the identifying statement "lacking belief in God(s)." Philosopher 1: That's actually just a definition of "agnosticism" -- unless it's coupled with a stronger claim, like, "because such don't exist."...

More discussion on the prior post as follows; Philosopher 2: I don't think "lacking belief in gods" accurately defines Agnosticism either, but I agree that atheism has some work to do in properly defining its position. Philosopher 1: Right. There's more to agnosticism, even. Agnostics can exist...

From the Agnostic Position any such entity in the position of aloneness (POA ) might go the dishonest way, but probably wouldn't since it has no other thing to bounce off of - so it would be at the very least a sincere attempt to understand ones self as one is. Further to that, if it reached...

Exploring Cosmic Mysteries: Matter, Antimatter, and the Puzzle of the Early Universe Me: “As the universe evolves, scientists expect large cosmic structures to grow at a certain rate: dense regions such as galaxy clusters would grow denser, while the void of space would grow emptier.”...

I think it requires from us acknowledgment that material science is not the only form of science and that there are sciences which deal with consciousness/mindfulness where physical science cannot go (unless there was a consistent barrage of such phenomena as you have mentioned) and as such...

The problem with your question which requires fixing is that you are conflating "science" with "scientist's." Science is a process and as such it does not make assumptions. If the phenomena mentioned is able to be scientifically examined then there is no reason why scientists shouldn't do so.

Navigating Interdisciplinary Frontiers: Bridging Science and Consciousness. GPT: The idea that something cannot come from nothing is rooted in certain principles of classical physics and our everyday observations. In classical physics, there is a principle of conservation of mass and...

This is where we disagree. Calling something "supernatural" implies it is not natural and the presumption of immateriality has not be shown to be necessary and has been shown to cause a stumbling-block wherein scientists (physics) find it unnecessary to examine immaterial concepts because of...

I think the first question to ask is "what defines a supernatural event?"

Philosopher 2: I am saying matter is matter whether it is moving or not, whether it is visible to our human senses or not, wether it is earth, air, fire, solid liquid or however one cares to identify objects, they are all made of matter...and matter logically must be eternal, having always...

If you can put forward reasonable rational that we should be open to anything having "immaterial aspects" I am open to hearing your ideas.

Perhaps a slogan along the lines "Agnostics are not "lazy weak indifferent undeciding atheists or theists" shortened to "Agnostics aren't Atheists or Theists."

Philosophical Dialogue on the Nature of the Uncaused Cause Philosopher 1: Yes, it’s possible that there is an almost infinite series of causes, but I don’t think there could be an infinite series of causes. Which means that this thing that has always existed would have to be uncaused. I think...

Metaphysical Discourse: Navigating Self-Awareness, Paths, and the Relationship with The Father Beyond the Pages [Replying to historia in post #27] Specifically (while not specifically mentioned in either the question or the answer) the object one is meant to be drawing closer to (as opposed...
