None really come back to describe it. So there is no empirical evidence separate from ... it is rational, in materialism, to say dead is dead. But rationality is bogus, and so is materialism. They are just some of the many mad ravings of monkeys ... theology, philosophy are the products of depraved psychology.
It is rational to say dead is dead, because that is all we have evidence for. As soon as you, or any other person claiming there is a non material realm or reality, can provide anything beyond personal conjecture, ancient texts, etc, maybe you can gain some traction.
Just to put it into perspective, please provide an example of one thing that was once an unknown, that was attributed to the non material, that when the actual explanation was found, it turned out to be the non material. Please let me know how one would go about discovering the non material, within your worldview?
Yes, we all presuppose that rationality is rational. After all, it continues to work. So, at least there is some amount of evidence that is more than just ravings or mad monkeys. But theists and non materialists also presuppose some other non material reality tacked on to their presupposition that rationality is rational.
So, please tell me what is your justification that the non material exists?
