Yesterday, I wrote about another interpretation of data showing that some regions of the brain seem to be responsible for religious experiences. The problem with my interpretation, an atheist would say, is that there is no evidence that such regions are a hardwired means for a spiritual God to interact with physical people.
I argue that there is also no evidence that it isn’t a plausible explanation. Hold on, let me explain.
If there is a supernatural dimension to existence, what would we expect evidence of that to look like?
That is a critical question. If we don’t know what to look for in terms of falsifiable data, then not finding it is not proof against it.
