SCIENCE, MYSTICAL EXPERIENCE AND RELIGIOUS BELIEF (Nov 2006)
Science, despite its impressive progress in discovering the natural laws that govern the material world can give no explanation of why these laws have the form that they do. Through the development of microscopes and telescopes it has revealed a universe even more awe inspiring in scale, complexity and beauty than our unaided vision had shown us.
The mass of data accrued by systematic laboratory experiments has amply confirmed the existence of paranormal phenomena, and a combination of what science shows us and studies of the paranormal give us some of the foundations on which to build a view of the world and our place in it. Near death experiences and recollections of past lives raises the question whether all life ends in bodily death and whether such death is the end of our existence.

This book is personal account of what the author’s life at the cutting edge of scientific research has led him to believe regarding this question.

CHRISTIANITY - DOES IT HAVE A FOUNDER? (Oct 05)
This essay defends the thesis that Jesus is not a historical person, but a myth, a myth that continues to fascinate us: The incarnation of God in the suffering of the Messiah. It is intriguing to see that the story of Jesus' life is composed of a stringing together of pieces of Messiah predictions out of the Old Testament. This process must have originated in the early Christian communities.
