It's All In Your Mind: ​The Virtual Basis of Religion, Sex, Time, And Death

Laurence O. McK​inney

The challenges of attempting a work like Neurotheology or its updated successor, It's All In Your Mind would appear nearly insurmountable. Any attempt to explore the evolution of human consciousness in a substantial manner, integrate it with Western and Asian religious traditions, and synthesize a new perspective, a systematic philosophy as acceptable to scientific thinkers as religious scholars, would surely require a team of individual experts and authorities.  

In fact it was the result of an unexpected journey. A graduate writing program led to Harvard Business School and national prominence in fields related to the mind sciences. At the same time, as a founder of New Age magazine and student at Harvard Divinity School, Laurence McKinney was constantly weaving his exploration and experience with religious and spiritual traditions into his ongoing quest.

Behind the scenes was his ongoing career as an entrepreneur. This alone allowed him to chart his own course, as well as create and manage the very organizations that brought him in contact with expertise and insight in nearly any field.

...nearly anyone could enjoy and understand complex topics presented in readable and articulate prose

Finally, as an educator and writer, he re-worked it and rewrote it until nearly anyone could enjoy and understand complex topics presented in readable and articulate prose.

It started with questions and ended with conclusions, with unexpected insights all along the way.
