I couldn't agree more. But then again, fundamental christians aren't the brightest knives in the drawer, when it comes to Spiritual wisdom. But some of the best known PD teachers are openly christian. I can think of Zig Zigglar and John C. Maxwell right off the top of my head. Until the christian leaders start encouraging them to think for themselves (eg question crap that doesn't make sense to you and don't just believe because I said so), then how can anyone expect the average Christian to ever be open to personal development?
