"I only believe what I see," is the typical expression of the fanatic materialist is unable to go beyond appearance. In this statement there would be nothing wrong, except that our brain can perceive only the slice of reality ranging from infrared to ultraviolet rays!
We use less than 5% of our brain. This is the view of the universe in which we have access. Therefore, to say that there is what you can see and measure becomes quite limiting and clearly illogical.

morning chatting with a colleague, came off the topic, in particular food and macrobiotics. My colleague had heard about but did not know a lot and asked me to explain in a few words what it was. I think I know, but really there and then I also agree I do not know that much.
Without going into the merits of the argument to be referred, in fact, do not know much, I will touch on one aspect of our communication that I found interesting.
The amazing things that make me smile thinking about the operation mental mechanisms are two
The first is that despite not knowing nothing about macrobiotics, I tossed a few things up steam vegetables and I felt that my rational side was sure to know what he was saying, leading But then the argument for vegetarianism, meat and various derivatives, in which I felt more "iron".
The second, which prompted me to share this little experience has been that in those two minutes in which I talked about macrobiotics, I realized he had just repeated verbatim, what I had told some of my teachers .
Returning home in the car, I reflected on this story, and I realized that he had never read anything really specific topic to study, he had never known anyone who practiced rigorously that kind of power, but even worse that he had never felt so full of myself the effects of that kind of power. Yet from the outside might appear that I had a well-formed opinion based on what I said.
Having exposed myself on this thing, I think about how much of the rationalist culture, politics and scientific thought often of "ordinary" that we filled, often are based on this strange mental mechanism called MYTH that like a dark fog (non) human experience, and greatly reduces power and human freedom.
Be well ...
