Religion in a Material Universe

Religion in a Material Universe, follows The Mystery of Matter (2010) and is an attempt to fill out the implications of the worldview developed in that study. We live a material universe which is observed, measured and described by science. Religion cannot compete with science. It has no "facts" about another world and other kinds of beings than ours. Religion is poetry that sings about the facts of this world, and its expressions are metaphor. We in the west live in a state of spiritual impoverishment because, in the main, religion refuses to apply its sacred song to reality as science has discovered it to be.
