I think a lot more people who practice science are open to that kind of thinking -- that there are things that cannot be explained in human terms -- than might be apparent. The just don't write papers mentioning it, usually. If they do, they tend to get scoffed at by the rabid materialists. One problem is that, as soon as you point to a particular thing and say, "that can never have an explanation we understand", the rational instinct is to ask "well, what else is unexplainable", and then try to build categorizations and boundaries around such things, so that they fit into some kind of paradigm. That then calcifies into dogma, and before you know it, boom! You gotta new religion. I'd like to hear more about this forward-thinking idea.
I followed the Science, and all I found was the Money.
