[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe this is a serious question.  I'm an interfaith minister.  I can totally understand why people are running from religion and church.  First, young people tend to be more accepting and inclusive.  They don't want to be a part of organizations that preach hatred and intolerance.  Second, young people watched older people enthusiastically support trump.  These are people who claim to be "Christians", yet behave in exactly the opposite way Christ did.  Who would want to be associated with that shi7?

Young people are smart.  They see through the bullshi7 of almost all organized religions.  These clubs (and that's what they are - social clubs) were created for the sole purpose of controlling people through fear.  Young people today are smart enough to know that there is no white man with a beard sitting on a throne casting judgment and sending people to hell.

I'm seeing a dramatic rise in people seeking spirituality as opposed to religion.  And I'm so glad!  We are shifting.  People are starting to become more willing to think for themselves.  Young people don't want to be spoon fed opinions by screaming, red-faced white men in ill fitting suits.  They want the freedom to explore their own spirituality.  [/quote]

What is spirituality?  Belief in spirits? What kind of spirits? where do they come from?[/quote]
