I would be interested in arguments about why we should eschew them that don’t resort to activist ideas of making the world a “better place” by purging the world of irrationality and getting everybody on board with a more scientific framework for understanding social reality or psychology.
I’m more interested in why individual people should anticipate that exploring these spiritual frameworks will make their lives worse, either hedonistically or by some reasonable moral framework. Is there a deontological or utilitarian argument against them?
