constructing spirituality from first principles

[sebenikela]

There's a whole long thoughtful post I would like to make about the idea that awe and wonder and even "worship" are not unreasonable ways to approach the many amazing things that exist in the world and other axioms around which I seem to be tentatively constructing a kind of spirituality that isn't made of barbed wire and broken glass.

This is definitely not that post, but I want to store this related quote for sometime when I have more brain:

"If there is a spirituality of scientists, it is that at one and the same time you are compelled to discover truth and cleave to that and mine it and also to live in expectation of everything that is yet to discover.”

From "On On Being: Krista Tippett tends to her flock in the Church of the Spiritual (but not necessarily religious)" by Amy Larocca at The Cut
