DM: Rather I think the religious future, if it has one, needs
to focus on DQ, which is what lies beyond science
and its ability to describe & quantify SQ. Personally
I do not see the word 'belief' as very useful. I think the
true religious impulse is about the relationship of existence
to DQ, theflux, creativity & death. I think critical thought
(about life, experience, knowledge) has to examine all the
same territory as religion, science and philosophy any subset
of these would be missing something. All the rest is
history and story telling.
