False Spirituality

"When we treat God like a pharmaceutical, something to be swallowed down to enliven the heart, to quicken its pace and send it palpitating, when we conceive of God as a spiritual encounter, a rock concert, a safari, an extreme sport, something to stretch out our consciousnesses on tenters and enlarge the sensory experience—when we become spiritual consumers we become idolaters."

G. J. Campeau
