Logical fallacy. Nuff said about the rest.
I'm sorry. You have added nothing to the discussion. You have not shown that common sense is inferior to a theory that we all designed every aspect of our incarnation (which leaves the enormous question of free will vs. destiny).
When the root principle of the opposite sides argument is that "the people around me say so" there isnt much I can say to influence his opinion.
Common sense is just that, what the common environment around you feels that is true. IT is not really true any more than the world being flat in the 15th century was "common sense" science, especially top of the line science is so far from common sense to be on a different reality. On top of that spiritual concepts are what is abstracted to be possible / not possible in the divine based on top of the line physics. That is maybe 200+ years ahead of what is "the common sense"
The argument of the writer is that the people around him know better than someone who spends 30 years doing the stuff him/herself, such as most top of the line channelers and quantum physics.
Common sense on rigel is common sense on rigel. What it has to do with if planting a seed eventually grows into a tree is near 0.
The person in question is basing the root corner of his argument in "my friends know better than you, nah nah naa" and such arguments are not, in general, very worthwhile.
If he had made a scientific basis for why things like the double slit experiment and quantum entanglement are against common sense and won, i might listen to his argument. But modern day science is so far from common sense that if he fails to grasp the uselesness of the conventional common sense in understanding things such as the reality of existence he fails to take into account just how massive the universe really is and how stupid it is to assume that a group of say. 15 of his closest associates really have any idea of how the world operates on the other side of the galaxy.
