"A great amount of modern thought is a based on the radical materialistic worldview of a very small number of people. Beliefs that are neither reasonable nor provable." That is a BIG statement to just gloss over. Please give details. "No we should distinguish between physical science, and psuedo-science. That which is provable from that which is pure assumption." I agree. "When the 'science' says that we are nothing but physical matter reacting to external stimuli, i.e. the mind, love, hate, moral law, etc, are non-existent, there is no solid provable evidence to back up this grand metaphysical statement." What is "the science" you refer to??? Also, the mind, love, hate, moral law, are all derivable possibilities even if we are just physical matter. Getting there requires some intense comprehension of complicated thoeries like emergent properties of systems, but it can be done. These things would just not be attributable to the soul or to G-D and may stretch the limits of our current capability to comprehend the world we live in.
