Survival of the Godliest
I don’t often cite articles, especially ones that are about religion, but this one I find fascinating. For those of us who pay attention to future possibilities, this could be a harbinger of a coming sea-change in the centuries-long tensions between science and religion. And in this scenario science doesn’t win.
This blog article caught my eye because if we were living in a rational world one might imagine that support for the scientific study of unusual human experiences, including psi and mystical epiphanies, would be strongest among secular humanists, whose faith is in science (sort of). Unfortunately this is not the case, at least not among those who most vigorously wave the banner of secular humanism and proudly call themselves as “skeptics.” They tend to view parapsychology as an illegitimate use of science to support religious beliefs. This is not true and never has been. But that’s what they believe.
Religious people, by contrast, seem to split into two major groups. The ultra fundamentalists don’t care about science at all, and they regard psi research as “testing” God. So they would like parapsychology, as well as many other things of the modern world, to just go away. More moderate theists are interested in seeing whether science can validate some of the tenets of their faith.
If the trend identified by the article continues, what will the world of the future look like? Mad Max? Logan’s Run? The New Inquisition?
