I am a 17 year old male from Ohio, I practice Christian Mysticism and I was wondering what your
opinion on energies is. Also keep in mind energy can not be made nor destroyed therefore whatever
energy you hold within you has been here since the beginning of time.
============
It seems to me that the word 'energy' in the scientific statement that energy cannot be created or
destroyed is a quite different word from the one used to describe mystical practice (this is not to say
that either is any more or less real than the other — that's a different question). Bearing this in mind, it
seems to me that your inference commits the fallacy of equivocation (using one word to mean to
different things at different places in an argument).
