HuffPo Blog: Dr. Eben Alexander Says It's Time for Brain Science to Graduate From Kin

Dr. Eben Alexander nonsense. :rolleyes:

The pure scientific materialist model that I worshiped for so many years has absolutely nothing to offer up in terms of explaining how consciousness might emerge from the physical brain. It gets a lot worse when you realize that all the phenomenon of the non-local consciousness -- things like telepathy and psychokinesis, and of course near death experiences -- indicate that consciousness is a far deeper, more profound mystery than "kindergarten level" scientific materialism offers up.



Then you have the enigma of quantum mechanics, which of course materialist scientists are completely befuddled by and have been for 100 years for a reason. Pure materialism does not explain the nature of existence in reality.



Is there even a non-materialist model of quantum mechanics?

To take the approach of, "Oh it had to be a hallucination of the brain" is just crazy. The simplistic idea that NDEs are a trick of a dying brain is similar to taking a piece of cardboard out of a pizza delivery box, rolling it down a hill and then claiming that it's an identical event as rolling a beautiful Ferrari down a hill. They are not the same at all. The problem is the pure materialist scientists can be so closed-minded about it.

People often ask me what my scientific colleagues think about this. Well, I can tell you the true open-minded scientists out there get it in a big way and they have for a long time. It wasn't just my book. There are a lot of brilliant scientists who have known for a long time that the pure materialist model fails miserably in explaining consciousness and reality.



In fact, a big part of my message is transcending that stale worn out dogma in science, and in religion, and helping people realize those theories aren't really relevant to who we are, what we are.
