No, zenSCI is no more affiliated with Zen Buddhism than it is with any other thought system or religion. The name zenSCI was chosen because it works together with the motto 'Making Sense of Science'. The domain name sensci.com was already taken when zenSCI.com was established.
No, ZenSci.com is not political. ZenSci.com provides a forum for all people to participate in many important debates. Opinions expressed by individuals here are just that, the opinions of individuals.
One of the most fundamental ideas of zenSCI is to provide a democratic forum in which the voices of people not ordinarily concerned with such issues as science' impact on society is heard.
So you do not need to be a scientist, or a journalist to participate in the debates on zenSCI, eventhough they are our primary target.
