Spiritual but not Religious (SBNR)

RE: Spiritual but not Religious (SBNR)
(November 21, 2015 at 6:20 pm)Thumpalumpacus Wrote: I feel spiritual at times. I define that simply as feeling a connectedness to something larger than myself -- in my case, humanity and and the  universe.  It's got nothing to do with woo, gods, Feng Shui, or any other horseshit. It's just me pondering my place in the universe.

Yeah, that's my personal take on spirituality as well. Another person's meaning may be very different though, perhaps involving their personal experience with telepathy with vegetables. It makes the word almost meaningless. We need a whole lot more words with much more precise definitions in order to have a good conversation on this subject.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
