:;<center>If two theories are equally good the simpler one is preferred. Because of humans inability to understand all of knowledge we have a tendency to want to simply knowledge when ever possible, but the problem is that simplifying does not make a theory better. Organizing knowledge into systems that are easier to use, understand, store and retrieve is very important. Aware theory is a better theory because it explains and predicts whereas others theories that include souls or other supernatural concepts or biased theories are very limited. For instance, if you can not study a soul you can not know about souls in any kind of meaningful way. Or if you can not see to and past the multiplicity of the self you are stuck in an epistemological hole.</center>

:;<center>[[Awaretheory]] is a simple straight forward scientific theory. But like most scientific theories the more you know the more complex it becomes. The consequences, like most scientific theories, are unexpected but with many useful applications. </center>

:;<center> Supernatural theories of conscious existence and immortality are not founded on science, rational thought or experimentation. It is assumed that there are things that we can never know or should not know.</center>

[[File:Evolution p tree.jpg‎|right|frame|The reason that evolution is not more widely accepted is because it is helps prove that the universe is materialistic and not supernatural which is supposed to give proof that [[life after death]] is not possible ]]
