Spiritual people more likely to be skeptical about science, study finds

Scientists surveyed 600 Dutch people on what they think and believe about certain topics and how that affects their opinions on science. Specifically, it involved what they thought about nanotechnology, human genome editing and artificial intelligence. People who identify as spiritual—and that group is growing rapidly in Western Europe—proved to be highly skeptical about all three. According to the researchers, this is the first evidence that “spirituality” is associated with distrust in science beyond the realm of vaccination.
