A precise demonstration of the consanguinity between goats and sheep. Sheep bounce a bit...goats bounce always.

Be you didn't know that Tigger was really a goat, did you?

OMG, Tiggers really DO bounce!

Battle of the Tiggers!

But goats don't need trampolines. Goats have trampolines embedded in their hooves! They bounce every time they move...they're worse than Tiggers, I swear!

And eight months ago, Tigger punched a kid:

I doubt the point of screwtape letters is to encourage a sincere reflection on the question of existance. It might tigger that form of reflection in some individuals but in most individuals it will reinforce the fear of hell, eternal damnation, temptation of things deemed sinful in Christian theology, etc (which is what I suspect it was designed to do).

While these letters don't explicitly claim that the universe revolves around you, the suggestion that god-like creatures are engaged in an eternal battle over the possession your soul is certainly an exploitation of our tendency to imagine ourselves at the center of the universe. On a similar vein, you must certainly remember the how long it took the church to come to grips with the fact that Sun does not revolve around the Earth.

If you are looking for sources of transcendence in your life why not rely on the large supply of non-exploitative sources out there. I find travelling, music, arts, literature, science just as capable of inducing transcendence as religion and without all that heavy baggage that comes with religion.

I also don't understand why feelings of transendence are often considered as proof of the existance of a soul. Transendent experience is a common human phenomenon which can be induced in most subjects with remarkable ease:

Not to mention transcendence has also been avaliable in pill form for over 50 years now. 200 micrograms of lsd will get your "soul" talking so loudly your neighbors will be banging down your door asking it to shut up.

Were you guys terrorized by Disney Characters as children? I'm sensing some harshness here.
