John, I thought that was a very good article and there's nothing about it I would disagree with. I would, however, add a paragraph or 6 on new age sprituality. The spritual concepts that The Secret is based on are entirely rooted in it and it would certainly be worth discussing with an admonition to feel free to read the book and to use the concepts to improve your life, but to think very critically about the spiritual aspects of the book. New age concepts pervade our culture these days and most people are unaware of the origin of most of those concepts. Reading up on someone like David Hawkins could shed a lot of light this subject.
