52. I think we have a different definiton of spirituality
I used to wonder why people argued about semantics so much and what the big freaking deal was about "labels", and then I realized that everyone has their own personal language.

When I think of the word spirituality, I don't think of vibrational energies and all that sort of thing. Sounds like you're thinking of what I see on the usual astrology site. I would define that as superstition and the same sort of magical thinking as religion, not spirituality.

Are Maslow's theories about self-actualization not generally accepted as decent science? I thought they were, but hey, I can be wrong.
