I study Psychology and got mocked by my friend because of this. He was saying how can I study psychology and believe in what I believe. I said for one, psychology is just an interest for me career wise and my spiritual beliefs aren't anything to do with that.
One of my tutors did say that if we were to do a study on this the chances are that the results would not be significant. Therefore, I don't believe they hate spirituality, it's just that there research generally does not find such things to be true.
Hmmm.. good post. I have now decided that I'm going to do my second year project in this area
