The debate between science and religion is a no win situation. Religion is based upon faith that by definition defies the notion of needing proof. Science, on the other hand, looks only to the facts, as they can be tested at this particular time. The two come from such polar opposites that any sort of compromise seems impossible. Religion fixated on the hereafter. Science stuck in the physical.
What if a compromise were possible? Could the best of both views be used for the betterment of our world? What would our world look like if we took our desire to investigate and question our surroundings while seeking to make our world a more loving, connected place?
Mind Before Matter is a series of essays and articles written about the potentials of science and religion. Many of these pieces look to use science in new ways to move past the local, finite world of science into further exploration of the nonlocal nature of the subconscious. All invite the reader to look past the normal one dimensional way of thinking to investigate the potentials of the subconscious, the mind, and the spirit.
Mind Before Matter presents some very intriguing insight into the possibilities of science and the subconscious. While not really light reading, I do highly suggest tackling this compilation to anyone remotely interested in this subject. It’s well worth the effort.
