That's a good read John. But there is a big differance between religion and spirituality. Religion is about economic and social control which some people get a sence of comfort from, while spirituality is about developing an inner peace. Some people can combine the two, this is a good thing for them as it it gives a meaning to thier lives. Personally, I go more with the Native Americans on the idea of a life force in all things. There is a spot I like in the Redwoods along the Eel River in Nor Cal where I like to go and just sit and watch the eagles fish, listen to the water run toward the ocean and watch the trees sway in the breeze. It is more about being able to block out the stress of everyday life. People get wrapped up in thier everyday lives and being able to get away from that mentally is what it is all about.
Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Winston Churchill
