Fortune has nothing to do with it. Go back and read what I had written and
you'll find that the word "spirituality" is not mentioned at all. So, to bring

either dishonest or ignorant (or both).

Useless hypotheses, etc.:
consciousness, phlogiston, philosophy, vitalism, mind, free will, qualia,
analog computing, cultural relativism, GAC, Cyc, Eliza, cryonics, individual
uniqueness, ego, human values, scientific relinquishment, malevolent AI,
non-sensory experience, SETI
We move into a better future in proportion as science displaces superstition.
