Within myself I feel the struggle to find a spiritual home battling with the desire to be honest about the inadequacies of so many spiritual options. A desire for rigorous honesty makes me unwilling to "play at" a pleasing religious style that requires excessive "willing suspension of common sense". You are too subtle a thinker to give me a cheap grace answer, so I look forward to your reflections.
