Don replied:
There history of more than 2000 years of mysticism in the Christian
tradition, particularly in the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christian
churches. What do you think, all churches are social clubs? I'll expect to
see you at Mass tomorrow.
dmb says:
OK. Now that's three religious guys who simply assert that its so. C'mon
guys! That's not a discussion, an explanation, an example or anything. Tell
me about. (I've been to Mass and can assure you that it was NOT a mystical
experience for me, or apparently anyone else in the room. Wim, Sam and now
you have only teased me with vague assertions. Everyone seems to agree in
principle, but is mysteriously reluctant to come up with the goods. Again,
for God's sake, if there is a church that reliably precipitates a mystical
experience in it's members please, Please, PLEASE tell me about it. What is
it called? How does it work? Where is it? How long is the waiting list to
get in?
Seriously, gents. Make the case. You've practically promised it. Wim even
started the thread and agreed on the mystical standard of measure.
Holding my breath,
dmb
