I must certainly agree with this!  In fact I think that anyone from
any major religion must have some writings which confirm this.  It
also makes a good explanation why there may be some aspects of
spiritual thinking which material science has yet to comprehend.  Of
course I do believe that scientific investigation is as necessary as
spiritual.  The two MUST agree - or the scientific explanation is still
incomplete (or false) or the religious is (at least in part) superstition
- or both.
