re: god is on our side - de bono So you are one of those De Bono. lol.

On The subject of spirituality and the after life you obviously are a product of your past and present environment as am I.

The enviroments we have lived through and the influences which have formed our outlooks have been different indeed.

To me spirituality is the potential of the human condition.
A potential that lacks greed , jealousy, intolerance, impatience, dishonesty.
Spirituality is not outside of us but within, it is a place easily recognised but hardly ever obtained.
It is imagined out of common sense not divine intervention.
Some religions are vehicles to obtain this potential but do not get confused that they are not created by man for the developmnt of man.
The after life to me USING common sense is an agenda fostered at some time in history to bring hope to the repressed. The concept had a use and was exploited by the ruling class fo their ongoing survival.
