It is the ONLY penlight that shines upon useful and replicable information about physical reality.

You may well be interested in the fantasies about reincarnation that you THINK are reality. That is not reality.

You may well be interested in things “beyond” and “above” actual reality.

But the best way of gaining reliable and useful information about physical reality is science.

Nothing else even comes close.

Science is a searching floodlight compared to the dull fading sparks of theological musings about the afterlife in terms of gaining ACTUAL information that is of use in the ACTUAL world.

That is merely your opinion. You think that natural sciences - that which can be seen under a microscope, or through a telescope, or discerned through mechanical devices invented by human beings, and understood via imperfect human intelligence and reason, is the only way to know truth.

I disagree entirely.

There is no point of reference that we agree upon, so further discussion is useless.
