Re: Narcicism
Truth isn't "a" path.
What is Truth? -Pontius Pilate
Even Tom Cruise knows some truth. He recognizes that it's important to do things, to make a difference in this life.
Everybody knows that. Why is that astounding? The question always boils down to what kind of implementation.

“There is something which unites magic and applied science while separating both from the 'wisdom' of earlier ages. For the wise men of old the cardinal problem had been how to conform the soul to objective reality, and the solution had been knowledge, self-discipline, and virtue. For magic and applied science alike the problem is how to subdue reality to the wishes of men: the solution is a technique; and both, in the practice of this technique, are ready to do things hitherto regarded as disgusting and impious" -C.S. Lewis

Tell that to the Christians on this forum who are constantly arguing that it only matters what you believe.
I'm just saying that at least Tom Cruise seems to understand the obvious. In spite of your protestations, many Christians don't.
Not that that's going to make me become a Moonie Scientologist.
