(Gravity tells us nothing about thought..entropy doesn' explain dreams..etc)

..this is one of the many reasons that I am an agnostic.... (Not religious to the utter c****s that claim that)

This lack of knowledge is obvious to me but severely glossed over by mainstream science reporting as if we were on the verge of explaining (away) mental phenomena..

(The motive being institutional atheist bias?)

Wow...I am amazed.

You are current on all research done by all scientists the world over. Furthermore, you even know what all of that research will lead to AND you know what each and every scientist is thinking about their research, what their intentions are and what they are going to do.
Atheism alone is no more a religion than health is a disease. One may as well argue over which brand of car pedestrians drive.
