The Secret makes use of some "ancient" theories and although it far from "accurate", but I see the "positive" side of it.

But, logic is built upon a premise and conclusion format. Your term "far from 'accurate'" actually means WRONG. If you conclude a "positive" from a set of statements you [i:cadc827372]yourself[/i:cadc827372] admit to being wrong, how in the hell can you assume your conclusion isn't just as [i:cadc827372]wrong[/i:cadc827372] as the false statements present in it's foundation? Sloppy reasoning. As to address the stubbornness of the mind, I ask; stubborn how? Stubborn because we tend to be skeptical in a world full of liars and the delusional who have used religion and God itself for [i:cadc827372]centuries[/i:cadc827372] as an excuse to cheat and murder for financial gain and worldly power? Wow, how stubborn of us, to not want to blindly follow the idiots and maniacs of the world.
As far as the heart and mind problem, what if there is only a distinction if you are choosing to make one? There is no logical proof that there is a difference between the two beyond the biological. Your "mind" feels love and seeks wisdom, not your heart. Your heart pumps blood. It is more likely that your brain should be assigned all of the emotional and spiritual attributes the heart is. Why not? It certainly is the only organ complicated enough to generate these feelings and responses. In my opinion, it is superstition, and the distinction is a difference that makes no difference.

The weird thing about the title of this thread is that seldom are LGAT-brainwashed folk calm and they certainly have trouble looking into things deeper.
