Talk by Sandy Yang on Science and Spirituality in Tao

Why do some heterodox scientific theories attract such vehement ridicule, while others are merely contentious? From adaptive mutation to psi phenomena to water memory to UFOlogy, from plant consciousness to morphic resonance, the “excluded other” in science points to a transition in the defining mythology of civilization.

Because they pose such an ideological and psychological threat, these theories incite a more-than-intellectual hostility.
