“The beliefs concerning reincarnation have great ethical impact on human life and our relationship to the world.”

“Unlike scientism, science in the true sense of the word is open to unbiased investigation of any existing phenomena.”

“Traditional academic science describes human beings as highly developed animals and biological thinking machines. We appear to be Newtonian objects made of atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, and organs.”

“According to materialistic science, any memory requires a material substrate, such as the neuronal network in the brain or the DNA molecules of the genes.”
