If it is not measurable then there's no reason to call it energy. And if it isn't measurable, how can we say it exists at all? How can something we can't measure or detect in any way have any influence on the physical universe which contains my body and mind? I just don't get the idea that there are things in this universe which we can know of and are not made out of matter and energy (in the scientific, physical sense of the word). People seem to think these "souls" exist in some sort of undetectable parallel universe, a kind of transcendental la-la land which there just isn't any evidence for.

As Thomas Jefferson put it:
I just started reading...this energy is measurable. It all starts in your Brain.
People can read energy measures in an empty space, I don't know how. This whole Universe is made up of energy that we can't measure, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.

Okay, just kept on reading it, and seeing how you're referencing my post...hold on.

Ok, where do you get the energy to process your thoughts into a "post", amino acids?

How do we have any energy to synthesize amino acids?

Everything has a gravitational pull. EVERYTHING. We can't just go up to someone and measure their gravity. Of course, a fatter person would have a greater gravitational pull. Moisture rises and falls over the Atlantic, and when the fronts make their way across the United States, they combine with the Moisture Patterns over the Atlantic because "water attracts water". If you place a drop of water near another, they will attract each other and it's an unmeasureably energy that causes them to attract (unmeasurable by my standards, anyway). I'm still asleep.

T. J. was a "Confederate" President. No? I'm not into American History, besides what I've learned in Elementary School.
