Science is not in the business of explaining the sensory hallucinations of humans. Neurophysiology tells us that the human sensory system is very easy to fool even in people who are not suffering from delusions. As for people with delusions you can really forget it as the spectrum of disorders is vast.
Next time an ignorant person says to you "science can't explain it'. What they really mean is they have not got a clue. What is more they cannot even understand the current level of scientific knowledge.
It is a case of the blind and ignorant leading the blind and ignorant. All they really achieve is agreement as to their own ignorance. They do not even know where to start to find out what is real and understood!
The huge amount of half truths peddled by all sorts of people are everywhere.
The only thing that works is peer reviewed published papers.
The rest at best is anecdotal and at worst completely wrong.
If I have offended anyone it was intentional.
