Well, religion is a strange creature. I think it happens in cycles, just like everything else. We saw polytheistic empires from the dawn of human convention. Those religions eventually gave over to the monotheistic religions and science. Now we're seeing the polytheistic traditions on the rise. Science is the one constant that is never constant itself.

I know that the mystic/mystery traditions that I belong to maintain their religiocity while trying to embrace science. I guess we want science to expand itself, and science wants us (and all religions) to grow up. However, every science professor I've ever had said that scientists don't know shit for absolute. It's all theory and tomorrow it could be disproven. I guess us magical folk wants science to expand itself to embrace mystery of things.

Here I am, Gren, after calling you a shithead, and now I'm actually enjoying your thread. I apologize, but I wish you maintain your introspectiveness. I swear that it's a lot more fun than eye makeup. ;) :)
