Mystic

Here are a couple of definitions of mysticism that I have found:

1) Someone who believes in the existence of realities beyond human understanding and having an experience not apparent to the senses nor obvious to the intelligence; beyond normal understanding. (online dictionary)

2) Mysticism is not an opinion; it is not a philosophy. It has nothing in common with the pursuit of occult knowledge .... It is the name of that organic process which involves the perfect consummation of the Love of God. (wikipedia)

My wife used this word on one of her web sites, calling herself a mystic Christian. The site was advertised on another Christian web site which was created to advertise and promote Christian ministries.
It's amazing how much trouble you can get into by using a seemingly straight forward word.
It seems to have taken on a meaning of it's own, particularly in the Christian community, and now suffers from the unfair and incorrect position that it is ungodly.
Anyhow, many complaints by fellow Christians were received by this site and we were asked to remove the link. Not wishing or indeed intending to cause any trouble, we did so immediately.
It's a sad turn of affairs, is it not, when not even brothers and sisters of the faith can communicate in love.
Ignorance is a poor reason for people to attach each other and certainly unacceptable in any so called civilized society, let alone a Christian one.
Ah well, at least my wife is in good company.
