<There were problems, you just dismissed them. >
As I said, you don't believe M's heirarchy I do... end of argument, others make up there own mind, clearly ours are.
Most of the rest of your post is tangential to that argument so not relevant anymore... skip down to...:
<Its implicit in what you've said. I just noticed it. >
IT's NOT implicit AT ALL...(that I look down on uneducated, poor, etc. as incapable of spirituality) especailly given the above! THAT's MASLOWS ARGUEMENT, people under duress (fear,hunger,etc) act differently... That is obvious to all readers. YOUR IDEA WAS TO EQUATE THEM TO MONKEYS AND LESSER BEINGS... Yes, THATS what you "noticed" isn't it... that's what popped into YOUR head.
<- I believe in a God that can intervene in the world. But not magic tricks.>
But you ridiculed Chinese beliefs when they were parallel to those reported in the bible...
again, it's clearly YOU who are phobic about other cultures based on the last 2 obvious paragraphs. Better get to work "owning that" about yourself.
