dhw: "I do not accept naturalism/chance. I do not accept either theory (design v. chance). I'm an agnostic." /// "scientific evidence is not necessarily the only form of evidence, since it presupposes the materialistic conclusion that the world is exclusively physical. I am not prepared to ignore, for instance, mystic or "paranormal" experiences."-So you are not an agnostic after all! You are a mystic. A gnostic.-Scientific evidence does not presuppose materialism, it is agnostic. It is about reproducible, verifiable, falsifiable, evidence. If evidence of paranormal phenomena could be reproduced the subject would become scientific, and incorporated into the scientific canon.
