I agree.
Frijtfof Capra, also.
But this illustrates my point. As long as non confessional theology
does not come back to academy, we open the road of the lack of rigor
in the field, and we provide jobs to the charlatans, and retired
Doctors.
Actually, theology has been ejected out of the academy, due to such
charlatan, and stay out of the academy by the effect of those
charlatans and their allies.

the adulation of Castaneda and how even otherwise sensible people

Carlos Castaneda’s Sex-and-Suicide Cult, and the Witches Who
Disappeared
by PatrickHMoore
by BJW Nashe
Carlos Castaneda’s journey from anthropology student to famous
author to New Age cult leader makes for a strange tale that is far
more disturbing than anything found in his bestselling books.
At the peak of his career, Castaneda crossed over an invisible line.
He turned his back on the clear light of humane, rational thought,
and stepped into a shadowy realm of manipulation, secrecy, and lies.
It’s tempting to compare this to the metaphorical leap into the
abyss that figures so heavily in his writings. Yet Castaneda’s real-
life leap had consequences that were quite different from the
magical escapades depicted in his writing. Once he became rich and
famous and began facing scrutiny, Castaneda shunned the limelight
and spent the next two-and-a-half decades pursuing a bizarre
alternative lifestyle largely hidden from
the public. He
proclaimed himself a shaman and a sorcerer and assumed the role of a
mysterious guru surrounded by a group of close followers.
