“Science has to have a metaphysical framework to operate with confidence. Only then can it claim a truth that all should respect.”(Beyond Matter, Trigg, p.146) The current view of naturalism, which assumes all cause as physical and omits any spiritual cause (God), cannot explain why there is order in the universe. Fluid mechanics demonstrates this order (e.g. exact viscous flow solutions perfectly predict laminar flow measurements). A potential scientific revolution which designates metaphysical principles for the construct of reality requires a paradigm shift from a basis of matter to mind. Planck was one of many physicists who proposed that matter is in fact formed by consciousness. Christian Science, as stated by Mary Baker Eddy in her book Science & Health, fits such a paradigm. Her discovery explains the physical realm as being influenced by two sources of consciousness: mortal mind which constructs the subjective state of matter, and the divine Mind as the only eternally good cause and creator. She defined deific naturalism as the natural and all pervasive cause of God bringing principled order to the physical realm. The metaphysical method of prayer applies this spiritual cause, restoring health and order, and scientifically explains Biblical fluid mechanic anomalies.
