Aliens, Angels Or Water Sprites? - Page 5

Harkon,

I respect your opinion. It is more than just "science" to me, as well. I consider myself Pagan because no other "name" fits my world view. I've been practicing my faith in a Pagan manner since I was in my very late teens, for over 40 years.

Because I am Pagan does not mean I can't also be a scientist. There are people who are very deeply Christian who yet are scientist. Often they find their work only reinforces their concepts and I feel the same way. It may still be a mistaken concept in America or most of the world that Physicists are largely agnostic or atheistic, quite the opposite is true. Given the statistics that the universe could evolve the way it has only confirms a lot of Physicists' faith rather than disprove it.

I often use the less "threatening" scientific approach to explain the nonmaterial to Christians or other deeply religious people as a means to get them out of their preconceived notions and open their minds. Americans are far more willing to accept a scientific finding than someone else's spiritual understandings.

Alchemy is a mystical science, and most ologists eventually concede that the Divine power cannot be dis-proven. Being objective about my faith is difficult for me as I have an intimate relationship with my God and Goddess, guides and all aspects I see in nature. Please forgive me if I appear as a fluffy bunny, I am a fellow of the Theosophical Society and the science of the nature of being is something I have studied for many years. I have hopefully a balance between qualia and measured reason.
