Alice Ethna Herron's doctoral thesis, "Godless Mystics: Atheists and Their Mystical Experiences – Towards a Grounded Theory," explores the occurrence of mystical experiences among atheists. By employing grounded theory methodology, Herron examines how individuals without religious beliefs interpret and integrate these profound experiences into their secular worldviews. Her research contributes to a deeper understanding of spirituality outside traditional religious frameworks.
