I was not following this thread before, however, I would like to add
my 2 cnts worth opinion on this. The question that needs to be answered
is what is science and what is scientific? Can we say that the fact
we exist is scientific? If it is scientific, how do we prove?
Can it not be a perception? The entire theory of science of today
is based on the behaviour of matter, which may not be
sufficient to explain all the phenomenons, it is true that science
may be able to expalain all the phenomenons later, at that
time you won't see any difference between science and spirituality.
