<br>I wish I had a printer so that I could see this article on paper and make notes on the side. From glancing over it:<br><br><i>I lean towards natural causes, even if those causes turn out to be very subtle and perhaps very surprising.�</i>(when talking about his "exotic" experiences) > eingh, spirituality is as natural as nature itself, not following.<div>
<br>Yes, I am very aware the term "supernatural" exists, which if analysed means exactly the opposite of how people use it or the dictionary defines it. Super is a prefix that denotes "a lot of ", according to the same dictionary it means "specially/particularly" so supernatural, if anything, means very natural, a lot of natural, specially/particularly natural. And that is what spirituality is, precisely. Super-mega-natural.</div>
<div><br>That "rational" humans decided to go against their own logic rules in language in order to make sure they were seen as rejecting stuff they could not begin to comprehend is a complete different story.<br>
