And the need arises from...........?I think we have passed the need for mysticism.
But the need of religion, I don't think we have passed.
Of course, there a couple of "mystics" on board that will argue we need to learn about experiences and intuition that only a few can qualify.

We have passed the need for religion - ages ago.
Our society needs new myths and symbols to keep our collective psyche from cracking.

The subconsciousness? Some call it the soul. I do not believe in the supernatural, but I do believe in the mind. I'm a nonbeliever who thinks the psyche cries out for certain things and that these cries are passed down through genetic code
