Talk to people who were around for the 1980 election.

Back then, you’d be told that there was no difference between Carter and ronald reagan because Carter wasn’t strong against the racist South African leadership.

‘Good enough’ is never good enough for them.

You should consider buying a device with a ‘search engine.’

You can use a program like ‘Bing’ or ‘AskJeeves’ questions and learn things.

Really, think about it.

Personally, I think it’s just semantics, but I won’t argue any further.

I wish you all the best.

“I enjoy knowing it will benefit someone in need.”

The ‘something’ beyond yourself is the community.

You have a community spirit, an esprit de corps.

Sounds to me like we’re arguing semantics.

Old story. Aleister Crowley was a pretty horrible person in general, but he had a few smart ideas. He called himself a wizard, and someone once asked him to prove it. He asked if making someone fall without touching them counted? It did.

They went to a nearby boulevard and waited. Crowley picked a victim and began to follow him. Crowley matched his steps to the other man’s. Crowley then began to step more heavily, still in rhythm with the man. The man heard the steps, but didn’t really register them. Then Crowley mistimed one step and the man fell. He’d been following the rhythm without thought, and when it changed he tried to adjust.

I wouldn’t call it magic, but it was a power beyond his control

Numerous scientific studies have proven meditation to have health benefits.

Doing charity work, with no thought of a reward here or hereafter, is pretty much the definition of ‘spirituality.’

“Spirituality” is feeling a connection to something beyond yourself. It doesn’t have to be God, or magic.
