1/ People are hardwired for connection to a higher power. If you don’t provide a genuine spiritual conversation, people become more vulnerable to a counterfeit version.

2/ People are hardwired for dedication to tribe. If you don’t provide a genuinely patriotic conversation, people become more vulnerable to a nationalistic version.

3/ People have an instinctive way of knowing when somebody’s not telling the real truth. If you don’t provide the space for radically genuine truth-telling, people become vulnerable to conspiratorial lies.

There is a relentless calling in nature. It is part of being human, but not everyone has equal sensitivity to it for a lot of reasons. Language is almost a barrier, so many concepts are laden with misuse, misunderstanding.

Looking back at the indigenous people of our country; I wonder about all we could have learned. If only we had respected the hard-wiring so apparent in how they lived. Instead we ran right over them with some strange “thing” we called “Progress”.

As an atheist, I find this to be a thoughtless and somewhat hurtful tweet. You should know how hurtful Christian-normativity can be to people. Especially the large amount of people who have had all that forced onto us.

There you have MW, in less than three minutes all secular responses. C’est dommage.

I think there are plenty of people living fulfilling secular lives who would disagree with you.

In regards to spirituality vs religion, I feel a deep connection to living things, but I am not religious, per se. I think ppl have lost much of our "connection" to nature on a basic level (actually the understanding that we ARE nature). It's all inclusive and doesn't hate.

No such thing as magic, and "higher powers" but I respect your political views though.
