| They are the result of an infinite and ever expanding cosmos; absolutely no magic thinking or beliefs are required. I don't need to pretend that magic exists just because processes are complex. |

| ▲ | elemesmedve 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | What I'm getting at is the difference between subjective experience ("chills") and any theory describing it. ("Qualia", "no amount of simulating water will make anything wet", etc.) Although personally I prefer scientific theories to describe reality (they are still the best/most useful), our experience is never "based" on theories. | | |
| ▲ | LatencyKills 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Well then we agree. I'm just not a fan of using the term "spiritual" for a physical event. No need to ascribe "chills" in a hand-wavy manner. | | |

| They were created by magic Gaia energy spirit beings,
obviously. Or God, if that is your desired flavor. Or the beings in control of the simulation we're living in. |
