How can I talk with a friend who says this about the Law of One and Spirituality?
Quote:I hate to say it, but you have fallen into a trap where reality and imagination are confused. You have come to believe in utter nonsense and, somehow, think that everyone else is wrong. I think that you are too easily swayed into believing almost anything. Take, for example, that one guy who you were absolutely convinced by mere trickery that he could actually set fire to paper using nothing but the "powers" of some ancient belief. I'm sorry, but merely believing in something doesn't give anyone special powers, period. You can read a million so-called testimonials by a million different people, but that doesn't mean that everyone is telling you the truth. People lie about all sorts of things for various reasons, such as money (the sales of books and TV spots, etc.), notoriety and just to see how many suckers they can reel in. Others lie because they think that it's the only way that they can make friends.
The best advice that I can give a friend (and yes, I do consider you to be my best friend is to question EVERYTHING and remain skeptical. Don't immediately trust anyone, for that's a sure way of being taken advantage of. The same goes for salesmen, who are only in it for their own personal gain.
