Scientific naturalism - interesting and hard to argue with. Like most things, we need a blend of both views to create a total picture.

Yes, Eileen,

A blend of both views is a helpful approach to adopt, and like you say, as with most things! Thanks for reading and taking the time to respond to the piece.

Interesting topic. You left me hungry for more, but left me disappointed in the end-short and without exploration. I hope you will write a part 2 🙏

Yes... Leaving the dinner table a little hungry is a healthy lifestyle choice, as contrasted to being overly satiated before stepping away from the table. Most of these essays inhabit a reflective, open-ended, open-door space for the reader to navigate within. Cheers!
