Jessa sits down with professor Kocku von Stuckrad. In his book, The Scientification of Religion, Stuckrad talks about the process of identity formation through strategies of distancing: Religion understands itself as being not science, not just as being religion, and vice versa. Together, they discuss the intermingling of religion and science, and the revival of astrology.
