How refreshing to see a practical application of String Theory, thanks Smokey.

Actually the back of my desk looks very similiar, except all that is holding it together is gravity, a smidgeon of dark matter and my thought energy reinforced daily that all is well...

Also, good post rickholio. I don't think Jack was entirely saying Religion and Metaphysics should be lumped together as the opposite of Science although I can see some parts that seem to imply this. Religion in its outward, stagnant, dogma encrusted sense is mostly about regurgitating vague shallow concepts. I think of metaphysics as actively and dynamically trying to provide us with increasingly more detailed information on the workings of the stuff that science can't prove yet.

But as always it's not the information source, it's what you do with it and if it helps you to live your life better then it works for you.
