[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many non-believers are confusing a "religious" God with spirituality.  The two are different.[/quote]

Wrong.  They're both metaphysical phenomena that have no support from any kind of evidence.  They require "faith"--the willing suspension of disbelief.  They're equally likely.  Or unlikely as the case may be.[/quote]

Think what you will, but spirituality is not about guidelines taken from some book.  It's inclusive.  They are different.  Spirituality is a connection among people that breaks through barriers.  If you deny this basic component of our nature, then you can't really call yourself a human.

If you define "spirituality" as "a connection among people that breaks through barriers" then you're essentially defining the metaphysical component out of existence.  So sure, it's a bit like answering the anti-theists by saying "God is love".  Obviously people make emotional and social connections with one another.  Count me in;  I'm spiritual too.[/quote]

Just so long as you don't--after sneaking under the rope--then go on to make all sorts of meta-physical claims.  That's the kind of game of[b] whack-a-mole[/b] the theists play all the time.

"God is love.  That's all!"

"Ok, sounds good.  Obviously there's love."

"And when He spoke to..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!  What do you mean 'He'?  I thought he was 'love'?"

"Well, we already agreed we all believe in God, so...MOVING ON..." [/quote]

don't know about whack-a-mole

But you've certainly given enough evidence to support that you're a wackado.[/quote]
