>That was certainly how I first read it.  It gave such a warm feeling
of superiority.>

<<"superiority"?? what the heck does THAT mean? a superiority to What?>>

I didn't write any of the above, but I'm still going to try answering this.  I
think Scottie was talking about a sort of spiritual/intellectual superiority
to the vast majority of the human race...one which is in all likelihood false.
Its sort of the same feeling a devout Christian or whatever religion has
because he/she feels that they are "above" everyone else and have "found out"
what a lot of people haven't...supposedly.  This is all very nasty stuff.  I
hate it.  But...I guess one should accept these people as they are if he/she
doesn't want to be a hipocrite.  I'm treading on dangerous ground
here...anyone can pull me out at any time.  :)
