Excerpt:
Since the Industrial Revolution, the world has been suffering from DISenchantment. Isaac
Newton viewed everything as mechanical, and presented science to prove his theory. This
philosophy leaves nothing that science can’t explain, no matter how large or small. This
same view of the universe is said to be repeated down into our atomic structure.
For more than 99% of human history, the world was enchanted and we saw ourselves
as an important part of that enchantment. The complete reversal of this perception
is only about 400 years old. It has been steadily eroding our sense of magical power.
