Something physical is something you can see.
something metaphysical is something you can't see.

To get metaphysical about something, you must be able to see it. However, to be metaphysical about something you can't see or not know of it's existence seems impossible to me. However, non autistic people seem to be able to do it without question.

I can see the baby. I love the baby. The baby is physical. The love for the baby is metaphysical, because the feeling exists but you can't see it.

GOD, is entirely metaphysical. You can't see it, but millions of people believe in, and love god. This concept of religion is completely alien to me, as is most metaphysical things. People are scared of ghosts. I know there is no ghost so i am not scared. People are scared of heights. Heights don't bother me unless i am falling. Dogs don't bother me, unless they start becoming agressive, and only when they are agressive, i am bothered.

Metaphysics, like a lot of topics in autism, baffles me. I know the defenition, i can explain it and understand it, but i can never emulate it. I cannot feel something for something i know isn't there, it's impossible.
