Myth or Message??

When ANYTHING (chess,tennis, guitar playing) is taken to an extremely high level it could be said to be building spiritual strength as well as mental (I wouldn't say so though). Whether it does or not, chess is no different from anything else in this respect.

Only when you learn not to cheat, abuse vacation, and play out lost games ... grasshoppa.

There's no such thing as spiritual strength.

HAAHHAHAH nice one =P.

there's no such thing as spiritual strength, I agree there with sconsc.. And chess does open the mind: intelligence, patterns recognition and stuff.

Also when one Becomes deeply Spiritual you will experience the effect of Random Capitalization of words as you Type.

This made my day.

I can see how chess improves mental strength ..I guess, but how does it improve your spiritual strength iwi?

i don't know what spiritual strength means. unless it has something to do with religion and religious belief. if yes, then no chess doesn't build spiritual strength at all.

I also believe that

a lot of you have really good insight. i don't know what i was thinking spiritual strength is since it was posted in Aug. 2007.

now, i believe chess makes you take too long deciding things! lol

it gives you strengths and weaknesses
