How does science confirm anything about the spirit?
Body yes, but spirit?
That, and why do you need science for this? Historians know what day, time, and place The Buddha was born but don't know the dates of Jesus christ. That doesn't make one more important than the other (objectively speaking). It just means that even if they are both facts, that is not the point. People are still Buddhists dispite the lack of facts and science that supports a lot of the reasons for it's beliefs. But, like Christianity, that should not matter.
Real dreams and visions or symbolic?
Does it matter?
Yes. Science doesn't accept spiritual things because they can't be proven. We can't go back in time to say these things happen or not, we can just go by what we know now as "true" or fact. I don't see how science plays a part in this.
Science can't prove that a spirit can ascend yet you believe it is fact and true?
Bahai belief and christian belief are totally different. In most christian churches, literal resurrection is not just in the books. We can read anything anyway we want. It's something you experience with your peers. Bahai is not a christian peer. The experience would be different than people who believe and experience the same thing.
I don't see facts from sacred-books. I see them from experience.
It is precisely because science has been ignored that religion has descended into superstition and myth. For instance, science has proven beyond any doubt that man evolved over millions of years yet the Bible says the world was created in 7 days. The literal meaning of creation is fallacy and myth as science has proven otherwise.
Another meaning is thus intended by the Bible.
Likewise with such superstitions as bodily resurrection. Science proves that the body decomposes after death. Christ has a physical body that was subject to this law of decomposition like all of us. Another meaning was intended by the visions seen of Him after His death as His body was decomposing.
Although these superstitous beliefs are against the proven science of bodily resurrection people will stoop to any level to try to say their beliefs are superior.
The sickness of each culture, nationality, religion and race each seeking to claim its superiority over the others is what is the major impediment to world peace and world unity.
We should just all accept each other as equals and not keep pushing the superiority envelope as it’s only caused hatred and prejudices and with this ‘holier than thou’ attitude we can’t have peace.
As I said before. The bodily resurrection is indoctrinated into Christians so they can say their religion is the only one where their Messiah bodily rose from the dead so other religions which have buried Prophets are not the real deal.
Science proves that all human bodies decompose after death, So did Jesus’s body.
And Christians maintain that Baha’u’llah is false because His body is buried on earth. So this superstition has caused them to reject other Prophets God has sent.
