Spirituality is actually a belief system, and an ill defined one at that. It can't possibly have any evidence or be proven true, therefore it has no place standing in tandem with atheism.

I worry that some weak atheists/agnostics posit stuff like "can we be spiritual" in order to appeal more to theists. Fuck theists.

So you think Sam Harris is a weak atheist? I by no means am a "weak atheist" nor am I uneducated or resigning myself to childish comments like "fuck theists." I am not looking to appeal to theist either. Anyone who has read my blog would most certainly know that. I would continue my argument but I feel given your lack of intellectual integrity with comments like you have posted, that it would be futile.

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion. -Steven Weinberg-
