No, for the exact same reason a-BigFootism will never become corrupt, or a-Unicornism will never become corrupt, or a-Leprechaunism will never become corrupt.

It may be true that in the future the societies in which we live will not devote government funding to such research, but that it because of all the research already done in the area of supernatural or mystical claims, absolutely nothing has ever been found to positively demonstrate a supernatural or mystical cause and only natural causes have ever been found. If anything has been found about those claims at all. Pouring more money into that field of research would be wasting money on shit we already know doesn't work, has never worked, and, in fact, has been shown to be hoaxes or frauds in a lot of cases.
If anyone wants to privately fund that kind of research in the future, go nuts.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
