But there's no actual truth to that supposed universal truth you're talking about. I see no other evidence for some transcendental universe other then the existence of religion itself and I don't think that evidence that relies solely upon itself is evidence at all.

Do you believe in karmic law?

Please do tell us.

Well the implication that I'm making is that its cause and effect on a spiritual level, but very pragmatic nonetheless. The law of physics that states that for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction extends into the psycho-spiritual dimension, certainly there's a different dynamic at work in the quantum level, but in a nutshell, really no different.

it does make sense right?!?!?!?!?

I don't believe any sort of spiritual realm exists so no.

In your own words how would you define the term spiritual?

sleepy jack

I should have said supernatural as opposed to spiritual. To answer your question though I'd define spirituality as the connection that is claimed to exist between the metaphysical and humanity though.

well, the term supernatural is quite literally an oxymoron. Metaphysical is much more appropriate as it it is juxtapose to the empirical.
hmmmm.....I dunno' I wouldn't venture too far away from Newtonian physics if you wish to maintain your present outlook.
