Yeah. My own bias is that spiritualism is essentially an escapist enterprise. It is a quest to get beyond the mundane, to ascend to the higher planes of existence and to feel free. Me, I'm a soul man. I like the dark, dank entanglements of the flesh, the complexities of human society and the nitty gritty stuff of the earthly plane. Yep, it's chopping wood and toting water for me baby. I like getting my hands dirty.
