I couldn't find anything about Richard Milton's religious views, so I'll allow that he may be an agnostic of some sort. He sounds like a wacked-out newager.

Might I point out, regarding the assertion that all great ideas are initially rejected by the establishment, that the greatest and most counter-intuitive idea in the history of human thought -- quantum theory -- went from nonexistence to complete acceptance in under a quarter of a century. At no time was it ridiculed by the establishment, even though nearly everyone hoped it was wrong.

Quite true. Relativity was also quickly accepted.

For years I've said that we're living in a new Renaissance.

I never would have guessed there would be so many Galileos around though. Milton, Dembski, Sheldrake, Behe, Targ and Puthoff, and on and on ...
