In the spirit of equal opportunity, the Huffington Post is providing a platform for that Sensitive New-age Guy Deepak Chopra*. For an M.D. (lapsed?) he seems remarkably ignorant when it comes to science. For example, one of his “leading principles” is “Consciousness may exist in photons, which seem to be the carrier of all information in the universe.” Paging Steve Weinberg….
UPDATE: Michael Shermer deals with Deepak in a kinder, gentler, and more comprehensive manner.
