Candace Pert's research on peptides and emotion is the cornerstone of a big leap we're going to see in the next few years, on a big scale if we're lucky. She's everywhere and she says:

Most provocative of recent developments has been my “coming out” as a scientist to embrace what I experience as God. Some increasingly vocal hardcore atheists, who fail to make a very important distinction between spirituality and religion, are claiming their way of thinking should be the cornerstone of modern medicine and biology. True, the religion vs. science battle has waged for the past three centuries, but in my new book, I talk about a “new spirituality” that has nothing to do with the Church, but is grounded in more mystical roots. The God I embrace is within me and within us all, manifesting as our oneness, our love and our power. I dare to say that there is a bio-molecular basis for these qualities and experiences, and that when we are in these states of consciousness, we feel good.
