This article isn't for the faint of heart or the timid. It is a real expose' on all things "spiritual." Richard Grossinger shines a light into the dark recesses of spiritual doubt and holds us accountable for the inconsistencies that arise.

I had no idea why Tiphareth needed to be shared Saturday, other than I was experiencing a parallel event. To post it seemed a non-sequitur. The compulsion was strong though, and I have learned to just "go with flow" concerning certain urges. Reading the article by Grossinger revealed it was important in this sense; contradictory expressions of being aren't illegitimate as long as we acknowledge them. And how I felt 35 years ago (or yesterday) isn't going to dictate how I feel today--no matter how seductive the "pattern of behavior" may be. (or actually IS!) I can hurt and still hope. I can be tossed and still trust. I can feel loss and still love. What I chose not to do is be hypocritical about my hypocrisy. Many a time "gift" was the furthest thing from my mind when it came to Life and what it brought me. (the poem being just one example) If it invalidates the web site for you, so be it. You others, take heart. Richard has struck at the heart of the matter...
"Yet most average people are literally scaled down into triteness by their own doubts and apostasies, denying Christ at least three times a day before the cock crows."
Let us determine we are neither average nor trite.
