If we insist that everything must be explicable in terms of science then by definition we can never comprehend something that might exist yet is not subject to science, laws etc.
Could we just get this down to one term so I don’t have to keep responding to different words? I didn’t insist on everything being explicable in terms of science, unless you are saying “scientific fact”, then obviously you mean by those rules. But when I say “my cat loves me”, I mean that by my experience. Or, “the universe is one”, that’s metaphorical, not scientific. Then you go into this thing about “material”, but have been rather unclear on that. And, even if you’ve accepted that there is some theory on the creation of this observable physical universe, but we still rely on “material” explanations of how space/time was created, you still don’t accept that we just have not yet found the explanation for that possible source. When we finally agree on all of that, you assert there must be something incomprehensible.
Which is really where we started. Several of us have admitted not knowing answers and possibly never being able to know answers, yet you keep insisting that we aren’t admitting something. I can’t figure out what that is.
