I always assumed it was a way to differentiate from the zealots. I'm religious, but not in a "crazy, doesn't believe in evolution, claims to follow Christ but am actually a total hypocrite" way.

But there are people that are not spiritual because doesn't believe that the persons has a spirit. In the other hand, for many people if you think that people has an spirit, they assume that you must have a religion, which is not necessarily true.

I wonder a bit about this, Connie: Isn't the "spiritual" person saying that none of the religious creeds fit their particular set of intuitions and beliefs, and/or that the latter are incomplete and provisional but subject to their keen interest, investigation and evaluation? Isn't that OK, and perfectly sensible besides? What else could one then say, as a first general description of your position? And what prevents you (Connie) from getting more information by asking them what they mean?

Every person has a different idea of what their personal philosophy or creed is, anyway. If you talked to a large group of any people who profess to hold the same philosophy or religious convictions (or call it what you will) you would get a slightly different slant or emphasis from each one.

I am a Christian who has read the Bible in three different languages, multiple times, and will continue to do so. I attend worship services regularly. I also sit zazen.

I am who I am.
Be who you are.
