Watch this whole video without pausing, and try not to rage.

Shit-tier: Pause/quit the video before the introduction is completed.
Okay-tier: Pause/quit the video before the half-way mark.
Great-tier: Make it through the whole video without pausing, quitting or having an aneurism.
Thoth-tier: Watch the whole video without pausing, quitting or questioning any of the logical fallacies, leaps in logic, lack of sources, assumptions or any of the other nonsensical, pseudoscientific ravings.
Professor-tier: Write an in-depth analysis of the video's claims, including specific breakdowns of every fallacy, assumption unsupported by evidence, leap of logic, scientific claim, unsourced quote/information, and any other mistake you can find in this work.

You know there's more to this existence then just science books?

Professor teir; I saw the movie back when it was multiple episodes about a year and a half ago, joined the spirit science forums, earned their trust until I was a mod, then went all skeptic, led a failed revolution against Jordan, demodded myself in protest (that is, a martyr) and got permanently banned. Nothing can win against this monster.

Why can't science and spirituality co-exist?

My sides.

>>5730749
Because 16-year-old atheists think all kinds of spirituality means believing in ghosts and magic men in the sky. Also discussing how bad religion is shows that they are highly intelligent and have large penises.

I haven't watched the video though so it might be bullshit as well.

Of course, that's why researchers still have jobs.

"I'm not going to say this is fact, decide for yourself"
I like the attitude of the speaker in the video. Considering the effect water has on buildings, even modern buildings, its quite plausible that a stone city would be eroded away and buried by sea currents and sedimentation over the span of a few thousand years. It's plausible.

The essence of science is reproducibility. It's very simple really. That's all you need for science to be able to analyze something. If you are saying spirituality and science are not compatible that is the same as saying spirituality is not reproducible. If it isn't reproducible then how can it have any value?

[Anonymous No.5730768]

Spirituality and faith/religion gets mixed sometimes

Yes, because if it's not reproducible you can't teach it to someone else, by definition. If you can't teach it to someone else they can't experience it. Hence, it has no value to anyone.

There are things that some people describe as "spiritual" that science recognizes because they are reproducible. An example of this would be meditation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Research_on_meditation

Meditation is something that can be taught and independently experienced, thus it has value.

[Anonymous No.5730812]

>>5730800
I strongly disagree. One clear example is intellectual curiosity; you can't measure how curious someone is or measure how much they enjoy learning, but it's valuable simply because it makes the person feel good with no apparent harm to self or others. Same with aesthetic appreciation or emotional bonds with people. By the same token, you can't teach any of these either (contrary to what modern education seems to think).

[Science McOomse No.5730825]

>>5730812

These qualia do not exist in a vacuum. In order to understand what caused these emotions to come about, scientists study things like human evolution, neuroscience, biology, sociology, primatology, etc.

Just because a thing cannot be directly measured does not mean it's origins and impact are a mystery.

[Anonymous No.5730836]

> Just because a thing cannot be directly measured does not mean it's origins and impact are a mystery

Of course, I never said that. I was simply said that their immeasurability does not make them inherently useless.

[Anonymous No.5730865]

>>5730812
I think I did not qualify my explanation effectively because I'm not in disagreement with you here. What I had in mind was something like prayer. You can teach someone prayer. But, it's *claimed* effect can't be reproduced despite plenty of anecdotal evidence. I will not discount it has value in the subjective experience it creates of granting hope to the person doing the prayer.

Curiosity wasn't something I had in mind because the effect of that is observable. I could in principle quantify it by measuring how many books a curious person reads compared to the norm.

Of course I believe none of that bullshit but gotta give credit to the guy for imagination and creativity.
It was like reading the Vedas or something.

It's good when you think of it as an imaginary land and immerse yourself in it.
I read the Vedas, the Bible and many other ancient mythology books and it always feels great. This too.

You prefer to believe in the materialistic scientism of the day? Would you prefer to immerse yourself in the vain pursuit of the modern first-world dream?

[Anonymous No.5731252]

>>5731232
Dreaming is what sparks scientific innovation. When the brain wonders in the unknown, you can easily turn that into testable mathematical theories with a little bit of knowledge/experience.
You just can't deny that.
Example: Pythagoreans' view of the universe and modern string theory which is probably bullshit but still is a potentially testable mathematical model.
