	Reincarnation & Past Lives - Ian Stevenson, the Copernicus of a New World Vision
		This change also heralded the beginning of a new scientifically based concept of the world where only that which could be proven to be true by technical and scientific means was considered valid.
		The representatives of the scientific worldview, who are still in control of the way people think in the western world at the end of the twentieth-century, see those who still believe in old or very new truths which cannot be proven with anything as not in their right minds.
		There is a whole army of scientists, however, who grew up with this scientific concept of the world themselves and yet, while completely buying into it at the beginning of their careers, have due to their wider-ranging interests or outstanding new findings arrived at realizations, which clearly did not fit those scientific concepts of life.
