Why science and atheists fall short in explaining consciousness.

I am puzzled by your obsession, NOT with belief in a spirit world, but with coming on here and trying to convince people of your views on the soul, spirituality and the likelihood/necessity of there being a spirit world.  If I had a firm belief in the spirit world and was convinced I, or someone else, had had an experience that indicated a spirit world existed, I'd enjoy it.  Heck, I don't even think a spirit world exists and I am happy to believe my dead parents visit me in the form of small birds that often come into my garage while I'm working out there.  The experience is palpable, I feel their presence and I enjoy it.  I feel better the rest of the day.  But in no way, shape or form, would I go parading around a websites and discussion threads trying to convince others that what I felt was anything but my imagination or something they should believe, believe in or seek.  Why would I put my personal experiences out there for others to challenge or ridicule?  Those feelings are mine and mine alone. 

Why not imagine that YOU have a special gift, the YOU can "see color" while the rest of us go around seeing a monochromatic world?  Why not relish the experience?  Why no let it "make your day" so to speak?  Why trouble yourself with us naysayers?  Why do you do it?
