I would agree with Scott Peck, who said in his late works that the most primitive people have a simplistic, fundamentalist acceptance of religion and its absurd myths; the more intelligent are quite rationalistic and skeptical about religion and tend to believe that only what they see with their eyes, and that they can understand with their reason, is real; and the _most_ intelligent begin to suspect that there are deep aspects of reality far beyond what our partially-evolved minds can grasp -- aspects totally at variance and even in contradiction to conventional religion, and yet which might be called 'mystical' by thoroughgoing skeptics -- behind the universe that science reveals to us. With all good wishes, Kevin Alfred Strom. -- http://nationalvanguard.org/ http://kevinalfredstrom.com/ |
