I'd say it's pretty accurate.

"Mahayana Buddhist beliefs don't find modern scientific discoveries contradictory to Buddhist thought."

Close to what I was trying to say here-

"I've noticed that for most, all answers must come from known science. Well it's seems that known science is dynamic. Look at Jacobs post on relativity on the space board for instance.



I feel that knowledge is absolute. At some point in time we may know all there is to know but until then, we can't shut the door on other possibilities because they can't be quantified. Hard science and the human experience don't have to be mutually exclusive perspectives like nutrition and medicine."
