Jim Hougan Peter Levenda Quote

And, finally, what about the reality of spiritual experience? Are saints and madmen equally deluded? Are witches’ sabbats the same as alien abductions? Is exorcism merely a form of psychotherapy, or is it something more? Some­thing… other? What is evil? Can everything we experience as human beings be explained away by a tranquil, Carl Sagan-like belief in science? Was Carl comforted in his final moments by reciting the Second Law of Thermody­namics… or by a remembered prayer of childhood? Is science a candle in the dark?… Or is it simply whistling in the dark?
