That makes the majority of Americans open to spiritual deception. They don’t measure the good through objectivity, but subjectivity.
If anyone wants their name removed from this ping list or would like their name added, please let me know and it shall be done.
Religion often involves organized beliefs, rituals, and a community, while spirituality is a more personal, subjective experience focused on inner peace, connection to the divine, or a sense of purpose. Religion often provides a framework, doctrines, and specific practices, whereas spirituality can be more flexible and individualized. People may identify with one, both, or neither.
Religion is, in and of itself, sinful and a poke in Jesus’ eye.....
New International Version
“You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.”
And all religions have their versions of the law that they say you have to follow...
One of the most ignorant lies people tell themselves is that they are spiritual but not religious.
They desire a form of godliness but denying the power of God. 2 Timothy 3:5-7
100% of Satan’s demons are spiritual.
PING
the survey responses “illustrate the difficulty of separating ‘spirituality’ from ‘religion’ and suggest that for many Americans, there is no clear dividing line.”

The distinction between the two is religion is man-made culture.
IMO, claims of being ‘spiritual’ are just hedging-your-bet social excuses intended to mollify a listener, acquaintance or other without actually naming a clear religion or belief system that could or could not be criticized. It’s a cop out.
