Mark! I too have read science's explanation of much of these topics, and then other views also which tie into the "esoteric." But I don't lean totally to either side, I also have had experience with Wicca, Voodo, etc., that is incredible, but I find, imo, that these things are possible from both views (such as what an apparatus like the "Angel Light" could do), and that while it's all fine in the discovery of such, I'm just worried about what humanity will do with such "discoveries." We can be just so full of ourselves and impressed with our own power to change and control nature and the world that we don't stop to think about whether we should be doing such things or what the consequences can be.
(p.s. and yes, I do think other animals possess conscious thought, but where their lives are different from ours they relate to things differently, but there are many things we share in common with them and understanding between us is very possible with many species.)
If a technology can help to control or give power to some, especially government, over others we will use it...and unfortunately, like Nitro says (my view is with his on this), our track record with that and all that's going on now in this country is a major cause for concern for all, imo. There might be good ways to use this invention, but we always seem to find the bad ones as well. This sort of technology could very well be misused and not very "Angelic" in the end at all. We are very shortsighted.
Others will no doubt say that a discovery/technology like this would be eventually developed somewhere else too -- and no matter what we would like, it will get used, so that we need to get this first and use it first in order to prevent others possibly using it against us. That's a bad excuse, imo.
Yes, it would be a good thing for humanity to take a look at what it's really doing to both itself with all this technology and the effect it has on every living thing on the planet, because we are all tied together, we are all one. Imo there are no "lesser" beings here, just different ones, and if we, in our lust for control of nature and people, make the planet unliveable for all and our lives held hostage by technology then we've really committed a major crime...imo.
Responsibility. It's too easily forgotten in the excitement of our tinkering with science. There's always those who say, "I will take responsibility for it," but those are just empty words which fix nothing after the damage is done.
