Is New Age really backed up by science? Or is it just a bunch of hocus-pocus? In this video, CrossExamined Apologetics Team (CAT) member Melissa Dougherty explains how the New Age movement likes to borrow ideas from science and quantum physics in an attempt to back up their own claims and beliefs.

They really take ideas they don't understand and run with them...I am so sick of dealing with the egos on some of these people.
@VincentIrkallaOfficial Says:
A cult worshiping a man who his cult following claimed a century later rose from the dead isn’t very scientific, either, but the average religious person in the West probably thinks irony is something that use on their clothes. Pot, meet kettle.
@noelcaro9182 Says:
When someone falls into the “New Age” category with the beliefs that they’ve described but then when I ask where they are coming from and that it sounds like new age they say they don’t even know what New Age is…

@steveprofiler Says:
If christians just accept that god has a moral standard for people that god does not follow himself then how are they going to convince nonbelievers that god is good loving and just by using their own standard but not be able to explain gods standard.
Example:
Lets say a person that never wanted to be born because that person did not want to experience anything. Is god then good loving and just for being responsible for that person to exist?
@DeshawnDaviss Says:
I wouldn't exactly say that sayìng the universe came from thought is a misinterpretation because most Christians now believe in the big bang but that it emerged from the thought of God.
@omnivore2220 Says:
Anti-science, posing as science, presuming to speak in the name of science, is now openly fornicating with the anti-Christ, which poses as Christian, presuming to speak in the name of Christ. Their whorish relationship is revealed in the document, Laudato Si, among others, and their policies are executed by the world powers, merchants, media, and organizations.
@davida.2947 Says:
I need to put a slight difference on one of her points. She dismisses that the universe emerged from thought but in fact it did. The issue is who’s thought? If the universe was nonexistent before emerging then no natural person thought the universe into existence as nature did not exist yet. That means that a supernatural entity thought the universe into existence. That supernatural entity would be outside of the universe still as the universe is dependent in the entity. What sort of entity could have thought the universe into existence? It would have to be something akin to what we call God. Timeless, spaceless, omnipresent, omnipotent in order to create all that we see.

Here is the real problem ! You cannot have science without math . And you cannot have math without odds and calculations .And calculating the probability of Jesus fulfilling well over 360 , very specific prophecies . Well ....... the odds are less than 1 chance in the 10 , in the 200 power ! Now , this is where we should always start from !

Law of vibration: You're in constant motion that can inform your lived experience. This means that if you are manifesting a certain lifestyle, you have to adjust yourself to that desired level. You can apply the law of vibration by participating in mindful practices that promotes good vibes.
Law of attraction: The most popular of the bunch. It is used for manifestation. You basically attract what you focus on. You apply the law of attraction by believing what you are manifesting.
Law of oneness: Everything is connected. It is the first and most foundation law of the universe. This is activated when compassion is exercised and the fact that we are all one is accepted.
Law of compensation: Whatever you sow, you will reap is the mantra for the law of compensation. This law is activated when you contribute to what you're manifesting.
Law of gender: Relates to masculine and feminine energy that exists in all things. To apply this, you have to achieve balance between the two.
Law of cause and effect: All actions have a reaction whether good or bad. You might not experience the effect right away but it is sure to happen.
Law of relativity: Your reality boils down to perception. It allows you to understand life with a greater compassion and comparison.
Law of perpetual transmutation of energy: Your actions are proceeded by thoughts and tend to fluctuate. You activate this law by remaining positive regardless of surrounding energies.
Law of polarity: There is a positive and negative to everything. You can activate this law by uncovering what's happening on the opposite end of the spectrum.
Law of rhythm: This law promotes fluidity. You should activate this law by acknowledging your inner rhythm and not fight against it.
Law of correspondence: If your life appears to be out of order or you're content, it is a reflection of what's happening internally.
Law of inspired action: Similar to law of action, you attract what you want in life. You activate this law by creating a space for internal guidance.

All those that were given to him
@Thee-great-work Says:
Nah. I am a Christian, but I have to disagree with some of your conclusion. Everything created comes from the mind of God i.e thought as mentioned in Genesis. The only truth is law i.e cause and effect, but we don't know the first principles of creation so our truth is based on belief. What they mean by ones truth is ones perception. I don't fully agree or disagree with you or some of the new age assertions. I just don't throw the baby with the bath water, nor do I swing from one extreme to it's opposite.
@jammycakes Says:
Genuine physicists see that quantum mechanics is weird, so they carry out careful experiments to figure out exactly what is going on, how the weirdness actually works, and what they can and cannot legitimately claim about it.
New Agers see that quantum mechanics is weird, so they take it as a free pass to make things up.
@regstoy Says:
You gotta love it, when theists "pick and choose" the science they say their bible predicted. Can any god botherer show any section of your bible, that science would agree with? I keep hearing how the bible's 'creation' story is the big bang, but they conveniently forget, that 'light' came before the actual sun.

@JP-ec9rl Says:
The science community is a religion unto itself. So I really don't care what they think about new agers. Quantum physicists are over there in Switzerland trying to open up an inter-dimensional gateway and performing satanic dance theatre and the Hindu God of destruction is their symbol. So there's your quantum physics.
God manifested thought into speech and He created the universe. This doesn't mean that we create the universe but it lends some credibility to the idea that the universe is created by God's thought. Jesus said if you had the faith of a mustard seed you could command mountains to move.
The problem with the new agers is that people can't do anything without God and we aren't living in the age of signs and wonders. That was the apostles.

@RodMartinJr Says:
The problem with New Age claims is that they contain lots of *_half-truths._* Can thought have control over the physical? Indirectly, yes! And this is *_not_* "New Age," but *_"Old Age" Wisdom._*
When you pray, you are using thought to ask God. What most believers get wrong is that prayer is *_never_* the thoughts that we think, but the contents of our "Heart." Thought is only the starting point. We must become aware of our Hearts in order to bring their contents into alignment with the thoughts.
*_"Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it"_* (Proverbs 4:23).
I agree that "quantum" is the nefarious "go to" term for New Age fakery. It is not by anything physical that miracles occur, except from the standpoint of starting with our physical brain and its thoughts. But we have to achieve utter humility which brings ego to zero. This means that whatever we ask of God Almighty *_cannot_* be be selfish.

Anyways. Correlation is not causation.
Science is to see patterns in nature because nature seems orderly. Then try to figure out its underlying causality or causality relationships. What causing what to make it a pattern. So just because you find some patterns, you can't apply or copy & paste those patterns to somewhere else without knowing what causing what underlying. It may be so if you're lucky but it may not be so, too. Correlation is not causality.
.
Copernicus saw what actually happening in nature. Then Kepler had found some patterns in the motions of planets. And Galileo had found what actually happing in nature when things falling to the ground, and a pattern in it. Every object, light or heavy falls at the same speed.
And Newton put all those patterns together and found their underlying orders, and expressed it with his maths of gravity that things falling down here on Earth is the same natural phenomenon (pattern) as the Moon goes around the Earth, and so are Earth and others go around the Sun, too. It seems a universal pattern in nature, gravity.

If truth is relative, changing or subjective, it is not true.
Because God is Truth, (John 14:6) & God is immutable or unchanging (Malachi 3:6).
@TrueBlueFlowerChild Says:
People always talk about the new age thing is some kind of religion, but it’s just people looking at all manner of what drives consciousness and reduce suffering in all possible ways. It may lead people to live the deceptions of Satan, but Christians and Christianity have literally turned many of their children away from seeking any form of understanding about anything divine. I’ve known hundreds of people who turned away from God because of the sins of their Christian parents. Whether they were abusive or hypocritical or overly cultish or just had no idea how to foster appreciation for God in their children or let the state and the world hold influence over their children… Christians themselves are just as likely to lead people astray, as the study of new age. But, my interest in new age hypothesis and spiritual philosophical teachings helped me to understand and recognize Christianity as the most high of all spiritual teaching, the greatest truth, the greatest life guide, the best way to achieve a lot of the ideal mindset prescriptions that one might find in the new age world. And there are actual physical consequences that occur in our bodies when we are in a state of worship and gratitude for God in the way we are taught within Christianity. When people make attempts to scientifically understand the nature of God, Christians need to stop freaking out. Fine, don’t mess with all that stuff like calling on ‘weejee’ board spirits that you might find within the new age community… but instead, explain the science in detail so as to help substantiate your position. How do you know your understanding of the science isn’t complete boulderdash? But considering the fact that most Christians I know think there is some supporting science behind vaccines, they still line up to let the beast system inject them with their pharmokeia sorcery. Which is way worse than misunderstanding some fledgling scientific conclusions. Have you ever considered that these phenomenons, whether real or not, may be due to the Holy Spirit within us? You are disobeying God as a woman setting up a ministry in the first place. You can only be encouraging and supportive of male lead ministries and be a model of a person who follows Gods Will. You still are not following Gods Will and setting a bad Christian example.
@stephenking4170 Says:
The entire universe did originate from thought. This is logical. Firstly because if looking at origins, matter was created and obviously came from something other than non matter. Secondly, life shouts intelligence in every cell, in every DNA molecule, which is an information system.
Thirdly, we have light on this subject from the bible, that the all powerful, timeless, space less immaterial vastly intelligent source that science points to as the essential qualities required of the originator of the universe is who we call God, the Creator.
Fourth, the unique and authoritative book called the bible reveals that Creation came FROM the Father (ultimate mind), THROUGH the Logos (Word, who also became Christ), and BY the power of the Holy Spirit.
@isaytheenay5961 Says:
They've always done this though. They always pick the phenomena that sound to the general public most like magic, and then use that for legitimacy. When electricity was viewed as magic, they constantly talked about the electricity between beings. When relativity entered the public space, they talked about "energy" and how "we are all just energy". Remember in the dawn of spaceflight, that they talked a lot about how we are all just part of the "cosmic consciousness" and are all "star children". New age authors have always been very cynical about using and distorting science.
@monkeyman193 Says:
If it was not for science dragging them out kicking and screaming , religion would still be in the Dark Ages. New Age woo is nothing new. Being a Protestant is about being able to interpret your own God. This is why Christians in the USA are always arguing and correcting each other. Is your Faith so weak you need this propaganda? My faith in God is not easily manipulated.

quantum physics do not understand quantum physics. they believe quantum particles constantly go in and out of existence, they claim quantum particles are entangled and are aware of each other from one end of universe to the other. how do you prove these? you don't have to when theories and consensus are good enough to call it hard science. truth and science are determined by a vote.

The latest new scientific discoveries of the complexity of life and the universe only serve to bolster my belief that it took a supreme intelligence with immense power to create it rather than some random collision of matter and energy of unknown origins that led to a vast series of extremely fortunate events that resulted in us talking about it today. These observations only continue to magnify the greatness and glory of Almighty God. As well they should.
