Agreed, just read the original article & it's a shallow materialist take on a volume of work & life he clearly hasn't explored/

Jung writes in his biography that one of the straws in his break with Freud is that Freud refused to believe his accounts of strange synchronistic noises in his house that he associated with the psyche.

He talks about people experiencing the death of their sons half the world away, dreams that foretell the future & God seeking to understand itself through humanity.

Watering Jung down into something palatable to materialists does his work a disservice. The key as you point out isn't to pseudoscience things into a scientific jargon but rather to hold space for both science and the Mystery.
