..this is where i often stand, along with some so-called 'animist' principles..though most ancient spiritual traditions have things i have taken from..

it would be nice to have had more options in the poll than the mysterious 70% "other"..though i guess this is because these days most of us take what we can from a variety of spiritual perspectives without following a single 'ism'..

i hope in this new sub-forum we can garner an idea of the diverse kinds of beliefs the poll suggests..

the mystical experience cannot be 'proven', but can sometimes be demonstrated..
