I don't think so, Bipolar Nurse, and I do believe in spiritual conversion. There
are just too many rational, well-educated, wonderful people who have
experienced it to believe anything other than it does occur in men and women
who are open in their minds and capable of reception of very high levels of
mental functioning.

It occurs everywhere there are people operating in their lives using sublimation* as the
source of all their behavior. That's the highest level of human functioning. It's the
kind of life the saints lead.

*(Sublimation is the transformation of the basic human drives for power, reproduction,
and social approval into drives for serving, abstinence of sex, and having no worldly associations except those that are given to the effort to help others and serve God first and foremost.)
