We are not dealing with the usual psychic transmissions from the group here, but with a specialised formulation within the field of psycho- science. Preface At the beginning of every insight, wherever it was possible, stands a belief, a trust. Eminent scientists always strongly believed that if something is possible, that something will be discovered. Belief therefore proceeds everything. This is the very reason why the continuous battle between faith and the sciences is unnecessary. But as faith cannot do without common sense, science cannot do without faith. Faith and science sit in the same boat, because both of them can become ill in their own way. • The illness that can befall faith is false enthusiasm and ecstasy or the use of force, because all of them kill the common sense part of faith. • And the illness that affects rationalists is the discrimination against people with faith is a self- inflicted kind of extremeness. One often omits to see these days that religion in particular defends common sense. Bad Salzuflen, March 2008
