Green Belt
All throughout history, people sought some meaning for their existence, most of us here I suppose would term that the search for God, be you Taoist, Catholic, Jew, Protestant, LDS, Hindu, Buhddist, JW or Muslim. One thing is for sure- the answers people find can very different! So different in fact, that religious difference is one the major reasons (or perhaps, as I prefer it, excuses) for war & conflict in history. I think some people are definitely religious without being spiritual, do you agree? If you are spiritual do you have religion by default?
How can we define the difference between being religious and being spiritual? Is religion an outward sign of our inner spirituality?
Where do you stand? Are you Spiritual or Religious?
What's more important and why?
What are the differences?
What is better and why?
How *should* things be according to you?
Some say that religion is received wisdom. It has to come to you by revelation (this is an idea that Pope Benedict expands in his work 'An Introduction to Christianity'). Spirituality could be explained as something that comes from within, sets you on a path, makes you think for yoursefl, find your *own* answers...Discuss!
