Cold?::(   I am well and truly hurt.  I regularly comune with nature and on occasion, bring some dead and lifeless part of it home for my dinner table.


Really though, I am a spiritual person but it is difficult to discuss any topic rationally when one starts bringing the spiritual into it.  The conversation starts to sound cheech and chong ish.  People's spiritual sides are so diverse and, face it, so strange that any sort of rational discisson is nearly impossible in the presence of the spiritual.


Take the abortion debate for example.  My spiritual side just knows that abortion is wrong but an argument from that position is as useless as an argument from a faulty biological perspective.  It is necessary to square your spiritual beliefs with your mathematical self if you are going to take actions that effect others even if that action is no more than simple conversation. 


If the spiritual is left wanting in the face of "cold" logic and reason when confronted with issues that aren't strictly transcendental then perhaps the spirit needs to be revisited.  I don't think that there is any good reason for the spirit to be terribly conflicted with reality.
