>>Assume we are essentially spiritual beings. Spritual beings who are having a physical experience.<<

I think the essential problem is that I don't make this assumption and that is why I am having a hard time coming up with some greater purpose for the LOA than to exist as a fundamental law of the universe like gravity.

But, I have to say, if I did think we were spiritual beings here to grow our conciousness, your answer would work for me. I think that the LOA does work to make you aware of and to fine tune the vibrations you produce. A large part of my problem with your post is that it feels like intelligent design. Biological entities in the world have physical adaptations which all serve a purpose because they evolved to survive in their given environment. I think that our 'discovery' and use of the LOA is probably something like that. The LOA just exists. We are evolving to a point where we can manipulate it like we learned to manipulate fire.

Now, all that said, I strongly believe we should all work to be better people. But I think I think that because it is probably the best way for our species to survive. Because of the incredible self-destructive power of the human species, if we are to survive I feel like love and positivity is our best bet.
