Lest you accuse him of latching on to any single God/god, don’t: He’s pantheistic.
To listen to theoretical physicists working on String Theory, Superstring and M-theory discuss not only the wonders of the universe, but expanded consciousness and mysticism is amazing. To simply write off the universe as a cold dark hole is to diminish your own intellect and sense of wonder.[/quote]
Good posts on this thread, Allan.
I’m not at all religious in the “church” sense, but would never in a million years proclaim that I know what does, or doesn’t, exist in the “afterlife.” There is so much more that we don’t understand about the universe, than what we do understand. I think the “religion vs science” argument is a false dichotomy. Today’s “superstitions,” theories, and beliefs may tomorrow be explained by science. It certainly wouldn’t be the first time this has happened in history.
