More or less.

Mysticism is a seeking out of the Ultimate Reality or a connection with the Mystery or Wonder of existence. Religion can guide the seeker, but it can also build a wall.

Religion creates a box, science tries to look beyond the box. Mystics are out of the box.

I agree with this, but neither of these have anything to do with science.

My reaction to the question in the OP is: does not compute.

Well, science is a seeking out of the ultimate reality--at least that's my view of it.

But then, I also believe that science can be just as dogmatic as religion.

I agree with Lilithu on this one. I'm not sure how the question is even reasonable, Phil.
