   i tend to agree with kimba, life is a spiritual proposition wether it   
   sits well with you or not. wether you take it that way or not. i think   
   you are more accustomed to responding to spiritual capitalists. a sad   
   but obviously present part of this world. i share your disdain for such   
   entities. but such is life. it's all aq part of it.

Not at all. All the contempt here is coming from you.   
           
   
         
   
         
Contempt for what?  Be specific, it's the respectful thing   
   to do.   
         
   
       
   
       
How about "speeeeeeeeritchual" for a start?   
       
   
     
   
     
   
   Yes, it is amazingly contemptuous for anyone to describe themselves as such, I   
   fully agree.   
   That's why I enjoy mentioning it.  It's called fighting fire with fire.   
   Speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeritchual people don't like that much, and that's a good   
   thing.   
     
   
     
   
       
   
         
Ahhhh..the old mind reading diversion.  You know my level   
   of interest after what, 2 posts?   
         
   
       
   
     
   
     
How   
     
   
     
   
       
   
         
do you manage that trick?   
         
   
       
   
       
I can't read minds. But I can read. And you've made more than   
   2 posts.   
       
   
     
   
     
   
   Ok, so what is my level of interest then?  Please be specific, it's the   
   respectful thing to do.   
     
   
     
   
       
   
         
What do you get out of  trying to prove how "   
   peeeeeeeeritchual" you are anyway?  No one ever   
         
   
       
   
     
   
     
has   
     
   
     
   
       
   
         
an answer for that.   
         
   
       
   
       
Maybe it's because you're not interested in actually having a   
   conversation.   
       
   
     
   
     
   
   Or maybe not.   Are you suggesting that we should operate from the perspective   
   of your "maybe",   
   rather than the demonstrated facts?   
      
     
   
     
   
       
If you were, maybe you'd find out that my position is that   
   life is   
   spiritual. I never claim there's anything special about me.   
       
   
     
   
     
   
   Oh, ok then, it's my position that theirs only one reason to fling around the   
   word   
   "speeeeeeeeeeeeritchual" and that is for the purpose of making oneself special   
   and therefore   
   above criticism.   
      
   If life is "spiritual" why don't you just call it "life"?   
     
   
   
   
   i tend to agree with kimba, life is a spiritual proposition wether it   
   sits well with you or not. wether you take it that way or not. i think   
   you are more accustomed to responding to spiritual capitalists. a sad
