I'm far more open to spirituality and exploring what spirituality means to me than I have ever been in the past. In the past I was quite hostile to spirituality, as I connected spirituality with religion and also pseudoscientific types of thinking. I think my new found openness stems from discussions with philosophers and futurists currently focused on constructing 21st century world views for scientifically-minded people that are still interested in exploring phenomena that cannot be directly tested with observations or confidently explained with theory. I'm also more compassionate and understanding about people's own subjective understanding of the universe (as long as it doesn't affect policy-making).
