Power and might: two different approaches

Power and might are very important oppositions. We often tend to associate both, while, in my opinion, they might be opposed.

Spirituality, a possible demeanour of open mindedness

Spirituality can be seen as a symbol of possible openness, and a detrimental aspect of it is the interconnection between philosophy and theology.
