Non-Naturalism





       Non-Naturalism fails miserably at explaining truth, reality and knowledge. They say that the world we live in is only an electrical impulse in our brain. One example they used of this was a bird; when we "see" a bird we are only seeing an impulse that was sent to our brains to show us what a bird looks like. If this impulse was cut we would lose sight. Same with hearing; all a bunch of hogwash. Non-Naturalists believe that reality is all in our brains; that we created everything around us, the world, universe, and beyond. They also say that the basically figment of their imagination called physical reality is "Maya" and their god is Atman who is part of some truth somewhere in our minds called the "Brahman." There is no concept of truth because it is all up to you; your conscience and what your brain tells you is reality. Honestly Non-Naturalism doesn't make any sense, and it cannot clearly explain truth, reality or knowledge.
