I admire Kauffman’s attempts to fuse science and spirituality. I once asked him about attacks on religion by Richard Dawkins and other "New Atheists." Kauffman replied that “to dismiss those who do believe in God, in any sense, is arrogant and useless and divisive.” I agree. It is also “arrogant and useless and divisive” to dismiss those who, like Kauffman, are open-minded about extrasensory perception, telekinesis and other paranormal phenomena.
