Thought you might be interested in this.
The following is one of my best arguments yet for the validity of my ABC
field model of universal evolution -- that is consistent with both theosophical
metaphysics and most theories of physics (while contradicting some) ... Even
though it cannot (yet) be demonstrated scientifically by objective observation or
mathematical logic. However, even after the past 15 years of concentrated
study by all scientific disciplines, they still haven't come up with any
alternate theory of consciousness, mind and perception, or how they link to the
material brain and its processes -- which answers all the questions as simply and
logically as ABC theory does.
