Consciousness changes material existence, but how can science be confused with theology

My dialectical understanding of science and religion mainly comes from Asimov's "Uninhibited Thoughts", and then I watched some movies and books about cosmic space and quantum mechanics, including this movie. At the beginning of the film, many scientists expressed their opinions, which was quite like a scientific documentary; but it gradually changed. When it comes to God and the manipulation of consciousness, I can't feel any scientific rationale. In fact, science as I understand it is out of consciousness, obtained through a series of rigorous deductive reasoning and experimental verification (this part of the point of view comes from the graduate course "Introduction to Dialectics of Nature").

In fact, a reasonable explanation is that the film itself is not a science documentary, but an inspirational film in the guise of science. The science cited in the film is also very simple, nothing more than microscopic particles, nervous systems, cellular activities, etc., but what the real producer wants to express is how we live our lives. It’s as if some people believe in God and some people believe in Buddhism. Because of their beliefs, they choose the part they believe in through their consciousness. They don’t need strict dialectics or brainstorming, so they can be very comfortable. The same is true. In the face of science, some people accept the truth that others have instilled in them, and they don’t think about whether it is right or wrong. Therefore, movies in the cloak of science can still be justified by some people. However, this is not the case in the world of scientists. People who have been trained in scientific thinking should look at problems more rationally, at least they can make sense from past viewpoints.

When it comes to consciousness, this movie emphasizes this point all the time. Water is changed by consciousness, and even the world in human eyes is a product of consciousness. In the end, the heroine figured it out and made herself happy through consciousness. I don't deny that consciousness has some truth, but it's too much to talk about physics, which is precisely misleading for people with no scientific experience.

If it makes sense, the film also has its inspirational value. For example, as long as you pay special attention to something these days, it will often appear in your life. This is where the observer affects the observed. The information you receive and then you choose from is what the brain sees. So, if we keep the sunshine in all the time, then the world we see is also full of hope. Secondly, some people are accustomed to describing how pitiful they are in the face of bad things, which is often to excuse themselves and put the responsibility of the problem on others. If one day we can't be the victim, and any problems will be blamed on ourselves, then we have to take responsibility in life, and this is also the time for personal progress.
