And lastly, I'm a simple midwestern boy, could someone explain what spirituality is? It seems to be the kind of thing people say to pretend to look smart. Seriously, what is it? I have no fucking clue and I've heard it countless times. I'm starting to wonder if no one knows what it is.

Yeah my last post deals with this. Its this 'New Age' thing stupid people with money get into. Pick and mixing bits they like from ancient religions and tribal mythologies. You see these people who have Hindu statues, buddas, dream catchers, african tribal artifacts. Its nonsense, completely cosmetic. Thats what these hollywood types usually mean by spiritual. Oh and feng shi they love that stuff. Its just finding fancy and expense ways to describe things that can be more accurately and articulately discussed in the displine of human psychology. But of course its not as frilly and these people are profoundly dull.
This is not in anyway an attack on people who are actually 'spiritual', just Hollywood spirituality.
