This is an excellent summary of integralism. Thank you. Unfortunately religions of all kinds operate much like cults. I've observed that human beings need to flock to them because they seek guidance and certainty in a chaotic, complex world. No problem with that and understand those needs entirely. Our brains haven't fully evolved yet to cope with more.

However if we ever do evolve further, we'll understand we operate in a complex universe where quantum rules, and there are no certainties outside of probability and choice.

I doubt however we're destined for this, so the mythologies and man-made rules of religious faiths are the best we've come up with so far to guide our behavior.
