"a new broader understanding can encompass the previous paradigm without negating it."

That is not under dispute. What is under dispute is any unjustified assertion that a new understanding must or will encompass classical physics.

"I think the theory of everything will pretty much 'encompass" Newtonian physics, no?"

It will if it exists and if it is discovered.

"I highly recommend it (google):"

I seldom use it.

"Current theory says that at subatomic distances, these fields are replaced by quantum fields interacting according to the laws of quantum mechanics."""

This is irrelevant to the search for a TOE.

"So you're statement that there is no "evidence" is simply opinion"

It is an opinion shared by all scientists. That is why they continue to look for a TOE, but nobody has any evidence that a TOE has any scientific validity. Believe me, DAK! If someone ever was able to generate a formula which supported a TOE, it would be front page news for months!

"No one disputed that"

Nor is that the question. You said: "LOT's of pseudoscientific names in there!!" I correctly responded: "The point was to demonstrate the range of scientific papers in the study of consciousness"

"there are LOTS of smart people talking about consciousness and how it relates to physics...."

Hardly under dispute! There are also a lot of pseudoscientists and charlatans impressing the weak and the gullible with a great deal of useless noise.
