   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.

   Ok, so what is my level of interest then? Please be specific, it's the   
   respectful thing to do.

   Or maybe not. Are you suggesting that we should operate from the perspective   
   of your "maybe",   
   rather than the demonstrated facts?

   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"?
