Yeah, I gave up on the Catholic rituals because I didn't want to perform them anymore. Calling me a "new age spiritualist" is not far off.
That depends how you define a spiritual person. If you mean to say that a spiritual person is someone who believes in supernatural or otherworldly beings or the afterlife then that's mostly true. There are some who define spiritual as being true and loving to oneself and others. But of course you don't get to define that for everyone. To be more clear and precise, it's more definitive to say that an atheist is someone who is not religious or does not believe in gods or the afterlife. Anything more than that and you're being unnecessarily punitive. And in future, I suggest you ask people why this is so and stop making foolish assumptions.

So correct me if I'm wrong. Your reason for giving up on Catholicism was that you didn't like the rituals? Now who's the lazy one?
Why is it so?
