You wrote that people that feel desperate and lost are more vulnerable to belief systems that promise dramatic salvation as reward for giving up many of the ordinary human pleasures.
I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean. If you could post answers to the following, then I could respond accordingly.
Fill in:A. The belief systems that promise dramatic salvation as reward for giving up many of the ordinary human pleasures are:
_____________________________________________B. The ordinary human pleasures that I have not specified, Lou, are:
__________________________________________True or false:
C. I really do not know how the Spirit of Truth that you are writing about, Lou, enters someone that changes a person so that they can overcome addiction and depression.
D. I really do not know that what you could post here to lead people to that Spirit would require them to give up any ordinary human pleasures.
E. The lost and desperate people would be better off being lost and desperate, Lou, than to have a new heart and a new spirit that would lead them to dramatic salvation that could give them power to overcome addiction and depression.
F. I posted what I did, Lou, because I want readers to think that if they are lost and desperate, to discard what you write about receiving the Spirit of Truth and receive a new heart and a new spirit, because that comes from the Jewish perspective.
Lou
