Science and spirit: Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers

Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers
Author: Robert Sapolsky

Though I do not fall in the religious camps, I can understand the complexities between modern day science and spiritual beliefs. This extends not only to religion, but also to arts, nature and other things that we feel an "intangible" and "higher" process or feeling.

I love science, and it pains me to think that so many are terrified of the subject or feel that choosing science means you cannot also choose compassion, or the arts, or be awed by nature. Science is not meant to cure us of mystery, but to reinvent and reinvigorate it.
