Vic Stenger talks about the limits of science, and whether scientists should be critical of religion and the paranormal, or if such sorts of claims are out of the bounds of science, and therefore beyond criticism. Vic Stenger discusses the academic and spiritual career of Fritjof Capra, and his book The Tao of Physics and how it misused quantum physics to promote New Age mysticism.
Vic Stenger explores the implications of Deepak Chopra's work, which argues that quantum physics proves that "we make our own reality," and discusses the movies The Secret and What the Bleep Do We Know? and how they get quantum physics wrong.
Vic Stenger explains wave-particle duality, and the reductionistic Standard Model in particle physics, and why this contradicts the claims of the "quantum spiritualists." And he talks about the future of New Age mysticism and quantum spirituality.
In this weeks Honest Liar commentary, Jamy Ian Swiss revisits what happened in last week's episode to victims of the ancient con of the Three Card Monte.
