I do know that sufi and shia are both wrong, regardless of the mountain of things I don;t know.
I'd caution you against describing spirituality as subjective. It;s difficult to defend a perceived truth by implying that there is no truth to be had in the subject.
Ah, I’m not trying to defend it. I’m just sharing some of my beliefs, but not trying to convince you of them. And your guess that there is nothing higher than us, is the same as my choice to have faith. Subjective.
More projections of what you imagine about me than anything I think..and..again, calling something subjective is the worst track to take. Don;t you think that a more measured and accurate approach would be to say that all expressions of spirituality refer to some objective fact of humanity...regardless of whether or not they refer to the fact they purport to report?
The sense of the numinous is real. It undergirds all faith..but it isn;t limited to faith. In any case, my opinion of islam isn;t a guess or subjective in any way. Their magic book is based upon demonstrable falsehood at least three layers down, lol. A particularly hilarious game of telephone tag with a fundamental miscommunication at its root.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
