It takes more superstition to believe in metaphysical naturalism (which is essentially what contemporary science accepts as true without fully examining it in a larger context) than it does to believe the boy walked up the wall.

Metaphysical naturalism necessarily asserts that there is no such thing as intentionality, and that the self is not real.

Really? You have the ability to quantify superstition obectively such that you can determine which takes more?

Do share the calculus, please.
