"Spirituality," for me, is "an awareness that there is something far greater than we are, something that created this universe, created life and that we are an authentic, important, significant part of it, and can contribute to its evolution.” - Elizabeth-Kubler-Ross.
I suppose given she taught Jesus when she was Isabel she might claim to know something

From the above:
Kübler-Ross is equally unswerving in her belief in an afterlife. Until meeting Barham, she says, she had encountered only one entity, named Willie, but has since met three others—Aenka, Salem and Mario. She sometimes plays a tape recording to audiences of a male voice talking and singing, and identifies it as Willie's. She also maintains she lived during the time of Christ as "Isabel," one of his teachers.
Mercy on us! Is Bashers now quoting from a Swiss 'psychologist' who seems to have swallowed the beliefs of Spiritualism and Reincarnation? He'll be quoting Shirley MacClean next on how she was once Queen Nefertiti, or something (strange how these celebrity pundits never record their incarnations as kipper-smokers or turnip-pullers). Well, good old Bashers - this from the man who had the audacity to say that "Bishop John Robinson was a loony whose theology was weak".
All these sad "experts" on philosophy, theology, psychology, science generally; all-knowing experts. In reality, a bunch of has-been nerds sitting in their little back-rooms, googling like crazy and pontificating about things they really have no perception of. Get a life; get wise. You are pathetic. (Sits back and waits for the usual reaction of vitriol and denial.)
Saw another woman breast-feeding in public today*, Bashers. Have you noticed the phenomenon yet? Are you getting out a bit more these days?
As for the above - I don't have to make a song and dance about what I have read, because it is self-evidently considerably more than you have. I have been very patient with you, but the only bit of scholarship you seem to have come up with in recent months is a few notes you dredged up from your student days at Neasden Teacher Training College or wherever.
And your quote, hypocrite, was self-evidently obtained by your frantic googling - which you obviously didn't bother to check. Just accept you made yourself look a complete chump.
*It was in Caffe Nero, Corn Street, Bristol. I'm told that on tuesdays there is a regular gathering of young mothers there. If you're ever in that part of the country, you might like to pop in on tuesdays, just to update this long-overdue aspect of your limited life-experience.
