Yeah absolutly im with you on that.

Personally i know myself and what i can do and it good enough for me.

But its the uncurable human tendancy to explore and question. Now i find myself thinking is Death the end ? Is that all there is to life ? This is where spirituality comes in. Meet with others with the same view and the next thing you know your in a cult or god forbid going back to mass.
But like you said it all comes down to your own strength of character. "Gods" gift of freedom of choice

That is a good point. Maybe that is the essence of Spirituality!

And it was missdundalk that pointed that out many mnay posts ago!
All about what appeals to the individual.

Are some religions partly responsible for this? Most religions have a tendency to preach that there members are "unworthy" of something. In the Catholic mass there is the part before communion "Lord I am not worthy to receive you..."

They tend to preach that if you don't do this or that you are not good enough.

It is human nature to either lead or be led.

That is a difficult thing to succeed in doing.

The Secret is a 6 pack of beer and watching late night TV on your own



Maybe i should found my own sect hmmmmmmm free beer and TV for all!

Or you could nip in to the new gym just opened in Corkguys bunnyboiler thread.

Mind you there are more benefits for the ladies but men might enjoy hearing the details.

Oh you so hikacked that Clo
Just as well PT has gone to bed

Change the beer to wine, and the tv to internet and you got your first devotee

Or even hijacked it

Still going, hard to get away from here when there's after-hours going on

Been a while since I read about this but it seems it is human nature to be led. Also very few true leaders ever want to be leaders, instead they are forced into that position by people around them.

OOOOhhhhhh wedgy. ouch

WTF! bunnyboilers on my spiritual thread, report to the Emperor for a royal spanking on fri night!

You're a scream girl

Meant to ask PT what kind of paper where you asked to write ? Just on spirituality ?

Good night boys and girls chat to you all tomorrow.

Goodnight and sleep tight, good to see you again Roadrunner, rest of ye behave!

Do you think so? Maybe in some cases.

I think a lot of leaders choose that road themselves. Sometimes its a power thing and not necessarily for the greater good. Although an effective leader may convince people, for a time anyway, that it is for the greater good. Hitler comes to mind.

Lot's of people want to be leaders but they rarely have the talent. From studies I have seen it does seem that true leaders are reluctant. I guess they are the first to get the bullet when anything goes wrong

A lot of people believe that Hitler was what the German people wanted at that time. An interesting debate probably worthy of it's own thread though. If a leader in say politics represents the majority of people who elected him, what does that say about the people?

If the leader chooses to be a leader and forces himself on the people he is a dictator.

The more I learn about how people define their own Spirituality, although it does seem to have lots of Religious type references, this could merely just be a learned language, is that each person does seem to have their own take on it.

I would think this to be very healthy, and indicative of people who think for themselves on the deepest level.
