I only started reading Steve Pavlina's blog recently, but I don't find his articles very abstract.

At the least, they're not any more abstract than the notion that a man could get crucified and thereby all of mankind shall be saved; or the notion that global stock investors' future decisions can be predicted by referring to nothing more than trendlines on a graph of stock markets today; or the idea that dark energy is preventing the slowdown of the expansion of the universe resulting from the initial Big Bang; or the notion that your food is getting hot because the water molecules in it are vibrating faster due to being attuned to the microwave frequency in your oven.

Sometimes things seem abstract only because you didn't understand the simpler building blocks of the concept.

Notice I said understand, not agree or <i>accept</i>. One may or may not agree with or accept a concept, but before you take a definitive position on that, one should at least seek to understand what's being said.
