...but I challenge you to propose a theory of how non-physical interacts with physical.

Aside from the non-pysical creator, our thoughts, feelings, and desires are what animate and motivate our physical selves to do the things we do — the good and the bad. Emotions result in physical actions. Is time physical? Matter, energy, space, etc didn't just appear magically. They came from somewhere. Can you think of anything physical that doesn't have a non-physical component?

Is time physical?

It certainly appears to be.

Matter, energy, space, etc didn't just appear magically.

They certainly appear to be physical.

Emotions result in physical actions.

And physical things -- drugs, etc., affect emotions. What part of emotion is not the result of brain activity?

Can you think of anything physical that doesn't have a non-physical component?

Can you think of anything non-physical that doesn't require a physical embodiment?
