Originally posted by divegeester If you are saying that having "no spiritual heath issues" is being a believer and that "having spiritual health issues" is being an unbeliever, then yes i can totally concur with you.
However that is surely not what you meant (assuming it is you being referenced in the OP) when you said it? Surely you were not just saying FMF is an unbeliever...is that what you were saying?
That's not what I'm saying. You're reading way too much into what I mean by what I say, and you're over complicating the issue.

I didn't reply at all to the OP.
You can either explain what you meant, or address my post. It's just forum etiquette.
Originally posted by BigDoggProblem There is also the feeling of "connectedness" - to people, to animals, environment, etc. Lack of it could indicate spiritual illness.
So might there perhaps be more "spiritual illness" in cities than in rural areas?

I don't think that follows. City spirit is different from country spirit, but that doesn't make it ill. Holmes (Doyle) taught me that in the country, the perversions are well hidden. In the city people are always inches away, so everyone knows what you are up to. Sort of.

There's certainly a 'disconnect' in city living for many people who have perhaps moved there for economic reasons and feel displaced from their family and roots. - Indeed, you could make the comparison with a plant being uprooted and suffering as a result of its replanting in unfamiliar soil.
