text: spiritual, physical or psychological?? while in nam, i noted if in passing you gave something like a banana peal to a few children they would sit happily and share the stripes off the inside.  if you through out a whole bunch to a group, they litterally were willing to kill each other for them and if the same one who shared smiling was fast enough he and the whole bunch disappeared.  through life i have observed very similar things happen amongst our us population.  i have my theory whats your?? and will i get violated by someone with a banana fetish?? nam, huh? it takes an old lady like me to remember we were ever there.    this is a tough one for me.  i believe that spirituality is psychological.  i am not sure how it applies to the banana.  it could be that we, as americans live in an affluent country.  i am far from comfortable but i m still guilty of the more i have the more i want.   i also see the banana story as a group of people..  a small group would share the peel but a large group would be afraid that they would not get their share so they would grab as much as they could.  i am not sure that i am anywhere near what your are saying but i gave it a shot.
