yeah they were pretty on top of it. Fucking dark ages, imagine today if the great libraries had never been burned. Never trust a book burner. Anyway... My main point was more that as a society we tend to extend our current paradigms to their maximum, and then have to change them when we find out how wrong they are. Any honest scientist will let you know we're still just scratching the surface. Science works from the outside in, spirituality from the inside out.

Empiricism can only get you so far down the road. And when it stops do you sit there and say you've gone as far as it's possible to go or do you find a new means by which to continue on?
