41"Such nonmainstream areas of inquiry as astrology, fortune-telling, and psychic and paranormal pursuits play a vital role in society by satisfying human needs that are not addressed by mainstream science."

Do nonmainstream areas, including the likes of astrology, fortune-telling, and psychic and paranormal pursuits have an essential impact on society? The speaker contends so, since the knowledge related to the nonmainstream areas could meet human needs which mainstream science could not reach. Although I concede that there are many people, including myself, are indeed interested in them, it doesn’t mean, however, such nonmainstream areas of inquiry is as vital as the mainstream science to human’s life.
  
Admittedly, the mainstream sciences are too profound to many people in society, while the knowledge in nonmainstream fields serves as a spiritual bailment for people who are confused or are swamped in the predicament. It is common that people in love check out each other’s astrology to assure that whether he/she is their own destination, but seldom a couple of lovers visit a hospital and wait in a long queue, requiring professional answer from the field of medical science, for finding out whether their beloved one physically and psychologically fit them. Also, farmers in several developing countries, where the technologies of farming have not been so widespread, would turn to believe some certain paranormal power in form of holding rituals, such as the ritual of worshiping God of rain during a long-lasting arid period. Simply put, the nonmainstream areas of inquiry sometimes may act as a kind of magic balm which sooths people’s anxiety and pain.

Aside from forgoing proviso, nevertheless, once the nonmainstream areas, say, astrology, fortune-telling, and psychic and paranormal pursuits grow out of the innocuous entertainment, they are counterproductive to serenity of the whole society. Someone may malignantly utilize them create unnecessary panics, whether at personal, community, or global levels. At personal level, for instance, fans of astrology believe that there are lucky days and black days destined in every month, and they will intentionally avoid doing some particular things and even refuse to go outside during their own black days. At community level, the residents, especially in Eastern Asia, who lend their credence of living condition on the geomancy, would be terrified as a Taoist priest appears to assert that the geomancy of their community is not good, and the priest words may even directly result in an exodus of the community, which not only brings the house owners a series of troubles of moving out, but also makes the housing agency suffer a tremendous loss. At global level, I think no one would forget the Apocalyptic Millennialism when 2000 was coming, which led a worldwide pandemonium by avering that the earth would explode as soon as the 20th century came to the end. As a matter of fact, the shocking foretelling was finally pulverized by the reality that the every living thing on the earth is still vivid today and has safely stridden into another new century. Therefore, the exaggerative reliance on things of nonmainstreams would make people lose the faith to struggle against fate, or merely stir the people’s halcyon life.

Furthermore, when supernatural stories are twisted with realistic phenomena, people are easily to become bewildered and hardly to discriminate between them, hence the credibility of the mainstream science is threaten. Take the Crop Circle as a telling example. Those strange and mysterious shapes in fields, which have been tormented scientists for centuries, are still unable to be proven by physical evidences that they are created by human beings or are works of aliens. Despite the number of scientists who maintain “no aliens exist” increases, it seems that people’s inclination to develop legends of aliens, which spurred by the curious-in-mysterious-phenomena nature of human beings, overwhelms voices from mainstream science.

In sum, from what we have discussed above, we can finally draw the conclusion that though the nonmainstream areas of inquiry could guarantee people spiritual solace, we should utilize their power properly and charily, and their effect can by no means beyond the authority of mainstream science, which embraces the truth that we human beings thrive on.

结构是 开头，让步，非主流的危害1，危害2，总结。
对their effect can by no means beyond the authority of mainstream science有点疑惑，讲危害2的时候举的例子有科学被淹没的意思，跟最后这个结论貌似有些矛盾，可以修改下。还有对于其作用为什么不及主流可以加强些。

牛的用词很好的呀，句子也很复杂挖，白都看不懂。
需要好好向牛学习。看了之后发现原来可以这么复杂，看上去白都在写简单句。
