    Hi Robin Faichney -

    >Why not? I only want to know how you see such stuff relating to
    >science.

    Feelings, opinions, attitudes, and the self-expression of such are
    observable, and possibly validly trackable data.

    That's all.

    Observation is just a groundwork of science, of course.

    From this instance, when you say you're feeling relaxed, I can expect
    insulting retorts to innocent comments....

    ;-)

    By the prayer wheel comment, I meant exactly what I said- an instance of
    a material prop in the buddhist universe.

    Can one be a buddhist without something to spin? Sure.

    And I said that too.

    Science, however, is not theatrical, and all religions are.

    - Wade
