Science and religion need to catch up with one another


I like what Schopenhauer called the “direct apprehension” of the nature of things, emotion with science, faith with reason, informed intuition. Some of my beliefs have more scientific certainty, like the affirmation of naturalism, some are probable, some desirable, and some are blunders, but as Walter Kaufmann said, look to what a thinker has seen more than parsing his meanings. Our sacred, ageless mission is to evolve to Godhood, and both religion and science are applied science-art, not merely theoretical. For our mission, science and religion need to catch up with one another.
