I found this while just perusing the back issues of "Skeptical Inquirer." Before you go any further and accuse me of being a skeptic - this article is on our side. It advocates a new field of inquiry on "the cultural applications of science," namely to help us answer spiritual questions, which has traditionally been one of the responsibilities of culture.

What do you think? Is CSICOP on our side with this one?
