For a long time we have been accustomed to the compartmentalization
of religion and science as if they were two quite different and
basically unrelated ways of seeing the world. I do not believe that
this state of doublethink can last. It must eventually be replaced
by a view of the world which is neither religious nor scientific
but simply our view of the world. More exactly, it must become a
view of the world in which the reports of science and religion are
as concordant as those of the eyes and the ears.
Alan Watts, The Joyous Cosmology
An on-line book
Science Without Bounds:
A Synthesis of Science, Religion, and Mysticism
describes a world view that is both scientific and religious,
a world view derived by applying science's way of knowing
to the insights of the mystics.
