<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In the course of its unique exploration, <em>Spirituality for the Independent Thinker</em> combines themes from three related fields: quantum physics, theology, and philosophy. The result is a guide for independent thinkers who seek to do justice to the combination of ideas and feelings that generate spirituality.</p><p>Exploring themes of metaphysics and fundamental "ontology"-the philosophic study of <em>being-as-such</em>-the book singles out a constant structure of experience that we take completely for granted because it <em>contains</em> the reality we know: the experience of <em>now</em>. This is a structure that<em> flows</em> and it constitutes a phenomenon that scientists cannot understand or subject to experiments. They lack the standpoint from which to probe it because <em>they are in it</em>.</p><p><br></p><p><em>Spirituality for the Independent Thinker</em> helps readers to navigate conceptions that are open to them as they think in an independent manner about religious issues. It confronts the darker side of reality with tough-minded candor, while offering a source of inspiration that withstands any realistic challenge: the <em>ghostlines</em>s of the power that upholds us every single moment.</p><p><br></p><p>Spirituality for the Independent Thinker</em> is a tough-minded but inspirational guide to the ways in which science, philosophy, and everyday experience converge into spiritual questions. It takes one of the greatest of all possible questions-why does anything exist instead of nothing-and draws from it a wide-awake spirituality</em> that does not require meditation and does not lead to any bossy rules. </p>
