Scientific knowledge versus spiritual knowledge
#35
RE: Scientific knowledge versus spiritual knowledge
There is no such thing as "spiritual knowledge". That is just superstition, a gap answer, be it old books of myth or new age woo. It is simply over conflating our natural sense of wonder to comic book and or si fi claptrap.

I can have a deep sense of awe about nature and the universe and relationships without trying to create a bullshit utopia word for mundane reality. Yes life has some awesome things in it, but it also has some very nasty things in it. I can be just as much in awe of nature in it's destruction as I am with the constructive side. Reality does not need to be sexed up with gap words rooted in human ignorance.
