Spirituality 2009

Meh I suppose that sort of thing has some value but I refuse to believe in something that makes no rational sense.  Rituals and things like that can be good in setting your mind in certain ways and empowering yourself but beyond that it goes into the realm of superstition.  Alot of people get that way about prayer.

Yeah this is more what my friends and I are after.

What it suggests to me is the existance of a philosophy or activity which in effect directs a person's attention away from their own ego, and towards contemplation of something outside of themself.

This is my interpretation, as well.

Interesting. I would have defined it as the opposite.

Could it be a combination of both?

I'm Raistlin.

I wanna be Tasslehoff!

Including the part about seeing most of your friends die and then being squashed by a giant personification of Primordial Chaos?

A Kender would find all those new experiences amazing.
