Evidence-Based Spirituality, also known as Scientific Spirituality, Evidence-Based Spiritualism and Scientific Spiritualism, is a form of spirituality that seeks the development of a scientific approach on spirituality and the search for spiritual evidences for spirituality, it opposes the notion that evidences are only highly stringent, repeatable, double-blind, peer reviewed, materialism-compatible research, for all phenomena and it believes in "Different Methods for Different Domains" and in Epistemological Pluralism in order to study spiritual phenomena like Near-Death Experiences, Astral Projection, Mediumship, Out-of-body experiences, Spiritual phenomena, Spiritual experiences, spiritual healing, spirits, souls, consciousness, afterlife, extraphysics, extraphysical life, spiritual worlds, other dimensions and so on. Evidence-Based Spirituality also opposes the notions of scientism and neopositivism and it often uses the notions of extraphysicalism, extramaterialism, extranaturalism and spiritualicism for its studies and the separation of spiritual sciences from natural sciences where natural sciences cannot determine spiritual things and it's a thing that only spiritual sciences can actually determine.
"The notion of evidence-based spirituality might be really good in order to counter the material reductionism and the neopositivism inside the spiritual community and scientific community and the development of spiritual sciences and even lead into new discoveries related to spirituality and everything related to it."

Get the Evidence-Based Spirituality mug.An alternative to evidence-based decision making, "decision-based evidence making" is the practice of collecting evidence to support a pre-existing decision, rather than using evidence in any way to inform the decision itself.
This technique typically involves cherry-picking sources or relying on bad or unreliable authorities to justify or legitimise (after the fact) a questionable decision which has already been made.

Dr. Daniel Jernigan resigned from CDC in 2025, telling reporters that Robert F Kennedy Jr seems to be "going from evidence-based decision making to decision-based evidence making" as the Centres for Disease Control began citing debunked studies to support a dodgy claim that vaccines cause autism.

Get the decision-based evidence making mug.And everything to do with you trying to make a fuck point. Stop doing this. This is so fucking stupid.
Hym "It has nothing to do with a lack of evidence and everything to do with you trying to male me ask for help instead of allowing this to work the way I want to to. I know now that I'm being watched and, therefore, know you have enough evidence to do something about it so stop doing this and start doing that. I'm not walking back everything I've ever said in exchange for my stolen ideas or doing my own investigation. Stop trying to make the last 10 years of my life a waste of time over what I said. I can't get my time back but I could have, in fact, stopped you kids from dying there if you would have let me and no that is not invalidated by the fact that I'm entirely ambivalent about whether or not they do. I don't have to apologize. I don't have to ask. You don't need to 'win' this for you kids you need to stop waiting for me to do something else because you are not going to get a 'something else' that isn't THE SAME EXACT THING you have been getting in response to the weaponized schizophrenia when you do it to other people. You are being a fucking moron."

Get the It has nothing to do with a lack of evidence mug.There is a difference between not actively having evidence with you and there not being any evidence. And a difference, again, between those 2 thing and hiding evidence deliberately explicitly so you can ask where the evidence is to make a banal point about religious uncertainty.
Hym "Additionally, if I say "I have evidence in a safe under my bed' and you refuse to check the safe and prevent me from opening the safe... That is ALSO not the absence of evidence. But your Jew ancestors did lie. They did not talk to the creator of the universe at any point in time. If God exists and it has fore-knowledge... Talking to the people you created would be akin to talking to movie you've already watched."

Torturer: You are a heretic! You can't prove that you aren't one, so you are a heratic. Confess, or we will stretch your body out until you are a foot taller.
Accused: Ha, you did it - you committed the proof by lack of evidence fallacy!
Torturer: That's enough out of you. Brutus, give the wheel another turn.
