"Spirituality" is a bullshit word rooted in mythology and superstition. I have absolutely no value for that word.
But if there was nothing in human experience to answer to 'spiritual' I don't think it would be so popular. I think Tonus is right that it is emotional or perhaps a feeling/intuitive matter. Certainly it has not got much to do with reason.
I can agree that what the word signifies has no attraction for me either without insisting dogmatically that it can have no value for anyone as an objective fact. I wonder if you have the same reaction to the word "mystery"?
