'It means studying religion scientifically and also considering religious interpretations of contemporary science. It means mining ancient scriptures for profundities and setting aside preconceptions about God and special revelation. It means never knowing enough about science, history, languages, and cultures. It means paying attention to my own life and subjective experiences, for these too are data points, perhaps the most important. It also means always being in dialogue with not only my fellow seekers, but also atheists and fundamentalists. Some kind of religious universalism may be the only logical alternative to these extremes, but for the serious seeker, it is not an easy path to choose.'
Mystic Politics mission is to instigate debate on politics, religion, and science towards a more informed society. Our goals are increasing the authority of alternative media and citizen journalism- and to spotlight political corruption, government conspiracies, religion in politics, and the dichotomy of science and faith.
