In biology it was once thought that living things must have been
designed by a supernatural person and that they must contain a
vital principle to make them behave with apparent purposefulness.
But biological science discovered new modes of explanation through
chemical reactions, genes and evolution so we now know that living
things, including humans consist of the same ingredients as rocks
and stars and obey that same laws and that they were
not designed by anyone.
Modern science is not in the business of explaining the thoughts
and intentions of unseen people, rather it is in the business of
explaining to us, our thoughts and intentions which it deems to be
aggregates of the unseen, though not unseeable microscopic
physical processes in our brains
