If there is an afterlife, Feyerabend might be laughing at anything that 
suggests 'method' !

If I had the time and skills, I'd write a blog/book on what I call "Atheist 
Theology" - a deliberate oxymoron.
If science is wholly based on reductionism and materialism, then it is 
functionally atheistic.

But if that's the case, why not adopt the view that the Cosmos is a patchwork - 
and that it doesn't have to be consistent?  That it may rely on paradoxes?

Theorists seem to enjoy spinning theories that are 'elegant', 'beautiful' - is 
this view justified - or useful? The subject seemed to be close to the heart of 
Einstein, who rejected a personal Deity, but still sought order and elegance.

I'm interested in emergent phenomena - things that may not have any further 
explanation: ghosts, poltergeists, etc.  In regard to Cold Fusion ( and much 
else), I'm blown away by the fanatical insistence on theory above all reality.

To paraphrase a current slogan:  'it's here, it's queer, get used to it'
