MountainMist said: Whatever you do, though, don't imagine God is some kind of sugar daddy up in the sky who does special favors (like bending the laws of physics) for his little favorites. The physical laws of the universe are the essence of fairness (they apply equally to me and to you) and death is the great leveler. Accepting the consistency of the physical universe (i.e., there is nothing supernatural) is, I believe, a hallmark of mature spirituality. Hankering after the supernatural is in fact a form of egotism, a desire to "one up" one's fellow human beings. That's not where the truth is at.
