In your research, did you ever come across parapsychologist or paranormal researchers (like James and Jung) interviewing Catholic or Eastern Orthodox mystics or priests?

The reason I ask is because, it may be an untapped area of research. In the Eastern Orthodox tradition there are accounts of levitating, clairvoyance, and other miracles healings as well… (in the 20th century!)

If the “demon” card/stereotype is an example of a card excised from the deck is there an example of a counterfeit card/mediated stereotype that has been inserted into the deck. What is worse: to not have a full deck or to have a corrupted deck. This reminds me of Camille Paglia ( herself an atheist) chiding militant atheist on attempting to take away religion from the young and giving them nothing to replace it.
