What does it matter if the answer cannot be known? If the question cannot be answered than "spending a significant amount of time deciding" is just waste.

- DougN7 15y agoWhat if the answer can be known? Several people in the world and throughout history claim to _know_ the answer through physical experiences. They are easy to dismiss as crazy, but what IF they've discovered HOW to search? Some things just can't be measured by physical apparatus (like love for example).

- DougN7 15y agoLots of "migth be" and "seems to be" in that article. I don't think we understand it or can replicate it in the laboratory.
- icebraining 15y agoAre you claiming that lack of current understanding proves a fundamental impossibility of doing so?
- DougN7 15y agoCertainly not! Lack of understanding of the complete universe is why we don't know if God exists or not. We don't _now_ know how to define and measure love in the lab, so there are likewise probably other things that also cannot be measured and detected physically (at least at the present time).
