Amos - what's science got to do with metaphysics? "Meta" = "beyond"; that is, *daylia*'s message discusses something that is neither proven nor disproven by science.

I'm just putting my little $0.02-worth into this thread to endorse the original post and counter all the negative responses.

And I'd say yes, even the Fugs's music offers a spiritual element. Just because it's irreverent -- disrespectful of some estabished bullshit values -- doesn't make in any less spiritual. Insofar as it tends to reveal some kind of truth, I think that even the most iconoclastic art can be of great spiritual value (even where there's an obvious, er, carnal element).
