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,
And you said you believe in Maslow's ideas so his argument is also yours.
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.
Based on your statements. Allow me to quote you:
"it's much harder to pay attention to spiritual matters when your starving, living in fear, and oppressed of course. Bring out more animal instincts... canabalism, etc."
Furthermore, you belittled and dismissed third world conversions to Christianity as being merely a response to being given food by the Catholic church.
But you ridiculed Chinese beliefs when they were parallel to those reported in the bible...
I thought the alleged eastern miracles you were talking about (bi-location, esp, telekinesis) were likely Indian, not Chinese. But yes, I don't believe in esp or telekinesis or bilocation etc regardless of where they're alleged to occur. I am slso ridiculing the idea that the miracles attributed to Jesus were eastern mystical teachings Jesus picked up in the east.
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.
Gee, I don't think so. I haven't accused third worlders of being cannibals operating on animal insticts and incapable of spiritual development. You own those claims. |
