[Lotus]

Saden and Sammy, I agree with your critiques of Chopra. He bamboozles people with cheap, shallow imitations of Hindu philosophy so that he can make a good living.

That said, Shermer is not a whole lot better. He often fails when it comes to an either/or fallacy. That is, he will say that his answer is right and the other answer is wrong, when in fact deep logical thinking reveals that both perspectives could be correct. Religion and science are not always an either/or; sometimes they agree and are a both/and, and Shermer regularly neglects this angle.
