Deepak Chopra - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In August 2005, Chopra wrote a series of articles on the creation-evolution controversy and Intelligent design, which were criticized by science writer Michael Shermer, founder of The Skeptics Society.[108][109][110] Shermer has said that Chopra is "the very definition of what we mean by pseudoscience".

Robert Todd Carroll has characterized Chopra's promotion of lengthened life as a selling of "hope" that seems to be "a false hope based on an unscientific imagination steeped in mysticism and cheerily dispensed gibberish".[87]

You like to pick out tiny number of extremists.

Because they are the only ones that matter. If you are content to simply believe this stuff, take no action to spread the crap, have no interest in forcing the rest if us to honor your nonsense, if you leave the rest us alone - no problem.
Fact is few of you do. For most believers a constant aim is to create "souls for christ" or allah or whatever mythological character is currently in favor.

Where do you get all this specious crap? It is a horrible misuse of science. (By the way, you should indicate your sources when you cut-and-paste.)

The eastern mystics are/were con men making up elaborate word salad to gull the gullible, and so are the so-called quantum mystics. They are just the latest in a long line of mountebanks getting others to do the hard work of survival.

Well, 'DUH!'...look again!....there is a link called 'Untitled', to a piece by the world famous physicist philosopher Fritzof Capra, who wrote the world famous book: 'The Tao of Physics'.

You want to judge all mystics by a silly stereotype. Get out of it, already!

Here. Educate yourself:
