I agree. A complete science must fully explain everything that exists. If stuff remains that cannot be explained, then science is not complete. If there are ghosts, either science explains ghosts, or we do not have science.

I note that an explanation always splits reality into at least two parts: "this" means "that. " So if consciousness is meant to be inclusive of all things, that is perhaps why it cannot be explained, or is extremely difficult to explain. (my thoughts as an amateur only). Much rain here.
