"Spirituality and Religion are not quite the same thing."

Exactly. I've been saying this for years to anyone who asks me if I'm religious. I say "no, but I am spiritual". I reject the notion that God takes attendance every Sunday and doesn't like me eating meat on Fridays. I also find zero need for organized religion. Spirituality is something different.

But, hey, if the religious thing works for other people, then have at it. It doesn't work for me, but maybe it does for them.

Spirituality doesn't require religion, just as getting in shape doesn't require a gym membership or a group class.
