An Astronomer Attempts to Explain Spirituality

According to astronomer Nahum Arav, an astrophysics research professor at the University of Colorado, science is opening the way to a new form of human spirituality. Based on a sense of evolutionary connectedness to a changing and growing universe, this new spirituality, if fully realized, would transcend ancient ideas of a supernatural creator.

Arav, who studies the dynamics of quasars and their role in the development of galaxies, talked about science and spirituality with Vision contributor Dan Cloer.
