Spirituality is necessary before you can do science.

Spirituality is your best guess before you can back it up with science.

Spirituality is faith that a concept works before you know how to tie it to reality, spirituality becomes science once it is backed up with reality.

Spirituality is the root of all evil : evil as in not seeking the truth (using fuzzy terms) and backing it up with reality.

Therefore spirituality is the root of all evil and the path to goodness and truth.
Your post made me smile.

You have to start somewhere. If "spirituality" is the root of all evil because it is underdeveloped, can we also say that babies are the root of all evil?
