Spirituality doesn't require God or religious mythology. But that's why it works for people of all faiths and practices. I respect your acknowledgment that faith is antithetical to logic, and for that matter, science, but it is for that reason I can't in earnest draw a religion out of a hat and run with it as if it offers any security and comfort, especially that which the entire world would benefit to recognize. Aside from the well-being of society and the planet, I'm rather concerned about what's truth.
