The New Agers, for all their faults and their potential for corruption (which usually means money or power, ie an O[uter] C[ircle] rotation, of both of which Evangelicals are at least as capable if not more so), emphasise Unity, Love and Synthesis, which makes them primarily inner circle. On the whole, and pacé new Scientist, they do use their brains; their fault is that they pay too little attention to the wisdom of {some of} those who have worked before them (such as scientists).

The fault of Evangelicals, for all the similarity in practices between the two groups, is exactly the opposite: they don’t use their brains, but pay too much attention to {some of} those who have gone before them (except for scientists).
