When I have too much time on my hands I watch what the bots are reading. Came across this interesting thread.
Taking a fairly broad interpretation of the word religion - to reconnect.
Relativitism and pluralism are both descriptions of the way some of us see the world. Taking the scientific world view it is easy to see relativitism as a reasonable description, from Galeleo and Newton to Einstein they all realized that at least the physical world can be described in relativistic terms. Science itself can be quite pluralistic - it divides and conquers, When a scientist does an experiment she does her best to isolate the variables from extraneous factors. End of the day she realizes no matter how how good a job she does the rest of the universe has not been isolated.
Our understanding of gravity, magnetism and quantum mechanics predict the effects extend to infinity. The amazing thing about Schrodinger's cat is not (would not be) a dead and alive cat in juxtaposition, but the box that could keep the universe out.
Science for me points to a monistic description of the universe where everything is connected (hence religion). So both relativitism and pluralism are useful like Father Christmas in pointing us in a particular direction, but they are ultimately false.
