I'm accutely aware of what my underlying thoughts are to support this position, and while I appreciate the suggestion of an interesting book to read, I'm not looking for some great author-God from the sky to tell me what my opinions should be on the subject. I'm curious as to how you feel the word mechanics is misapplied. We are made of the same elementary particles as the rest of the universe, which we admit operates by a set of concrete rules. We don't (and can't) fully understand what the rules are, but it doesn't invalidate their existence. And there is no reason to exempt ourselves from them, except the "feeling" that we are "special" somehow.
