Charles A. Cottom’s Unique Take on Science-Religion Conflict Exhibited at the L.A. Times Festival of Books
The interplay between faith and reason was the subject of many publications featured at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books 2023. Among these is the work of Charles A. Cottom, an author who has dedicated himself to the ideal syncretism between the scientific worldview and the spiritual one.
The publications exhibited during the 2023 L.A. Times Festival of Books featured a wide range of views, with several drawing firm lines between the categories of science and spirituality.
However, there have also been a few authors with the determination to reconcile believers of one and the other.
Charles A. Cottom was one of these, who managed to secure an exhibit spot for his book, “Notes from Outside the Box.” Readers were able to get a look through its pages via the booth of ReadersMagnet, a self-publishing and book marketing company.
Cottom has spent a considerable time reading the works of science thinkers and religious writers alongside his fondness for science fiction. And in his book, he presents his own thorough attempt to syncretize the most common elements between spiritual schools of thought and that of current scientific consensus.
It is certainly no light task, as he dedicates much of “Notes from Outside the Box” to first filtering out the differences between the world’s various religions in order to focus on common spiritual beliefs. However, he argues that the end result is a powerful reconciliation between religion and science.
From his musings, one can conclude that the entire human experience of existence is the result of an ongoing Creative Process. It is through this process that the living mind and matter were produced, equipped with the very means to understand the Process and its wonders.
Charles A. Cottom hopes that having his book exhibited will invite more readers to see science and religion as complementary rather than on opposing sides. “Notes from Outside the Box” is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
