Pride is a major stumbling block in most things. Kinda holds hands with ego.

Have no idea. Actually I can't relate pride to spirituality. All of us should take pride in ourselves for whatever achievements made, no matter how small. I think the lack of pride would block ones way to finding it instead. Humility along with pride creates a spiritual being so I just decided the answer is no. peace & love

It's hard to see things if you are leading with a false assumption about yourself....Pride can be a stumbling block no matter the destination you are reaching for.....
Proud people want to be Right all the time, and defend them selves and what they believe even when they are wrong....
Spirituality is ethereal at best... and others can't really define or explain how that state is achieved...you have to be open to it, and pride just leaves you to self absorbed, to get there...

OH MY LORD!! I cannot believe some things I am reading about Christ. "One day every tongue will confess and every knee will bow." Satan was the most beautiful angel and he was kicked out due to his pride. God is real because you can feel Him, etc. Pride is an excessively high opinion of oneself.; Proverbs 8:13, 16:18, 29:23. Isiah 25:11, 2nd Corinthians 7:4, Galatians 6:4, Jesus will reign on earth, whether people believe it or not. I feel so sorry for those who don't understand or believe. GOD HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOULS!!!

The ego is the major stumbling block to spiritual growth.

Pride is a good thing. A person with absolutely no self-worth is called a suicide victim. Too much pride is generally not good, but that's true of most things.
Spirituality is a fuzzy nonsense word. It can mean anything from belief in invisible beings floating around us to a general awe about the universe.

Proverbs 16:18 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
18 Pride goes before destruction,
a haughty spirit before a fall.

I believe it is a major stumbling block to anything. It seems like people misinterpret this word so much. Proud, pride. You want your children to have pride in their appearance, you want to be proud of your country. Hard to answer. My first sentence is my answer though.

I would say that is a big 'YES'. Your answer lies in the question "stumbling block" - Pride goeth before the fall.

No obstacle is greater as no other obstacle can be so subtle. Spiritual pride is wickedly quiet and sneaks up on one when least expected. Namaste.
