		<description><![CDATA[I came across an interview with Rupert Sheldrake on Enlighten Next Magazine website. This guy seems quite remarkable &#8211; does a lot of work on consciousness. Among other things he comes with a refreshing perspective on &#8216;God&#8217; that challenges the mechanistic view of the Enlightenment. He also suggests (with some justification, I may say) that [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ulen.wordpress.com&amp;blog=946433&amp;post=1037&amp;subd=ulen&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Before attempting an answer, allow a quick clarification. Evangelicals don&#8217;t exactly hate Jesus &#8212; as we&#8217;ve provocatively asserted in the title of this piece.
