"However I cannot tell you what spirituality means to you"
Human beings don't get to define their reality. "Spirituality" if you even know what that is retains it's meaning despite whatever it might mean to me.
A red house might mean a blue house to me but the red house is indeed red. Nothing can change that. I might see an apple as evil and poisonous but it is indeed healthy.
So.
Instead of that lame cop out, why don't you tell me what spirituality is? Come on enlighten me, the unwashed peasant I am :)
I'm sorry you found my comment lame. I do not wish to define for you something you need to learn for yourself. And unwashed peasants have a better idea of spirituality than you give them credit for. But seeing as you have access to a computer, and the internet, I doubt you are a peasant.
Fair enough, the "definition" of spirituality doesn't really change. However what it means to you will always remain subjective. It cannot be compared to the value of an apple, an apple is tangible. Spirit is an abstract concept.
For me, spirituality is the view of your own soul. It is how one identifies with existence. The energy that is contained inside your flesh creating the human experience for "you".
Are you kidding me? That's all we do is define our reality. Dig a little deeper. Red house/blue house. Is it a house, is it a home, maybe it's a shack, or a huge mansion, maybe a cottage? Who cares what color it is, I could be color blind. Color, for the most part, is inconsequential. Unless you live in an area where you can only have different shades of white. But that's not the issue here. The reality of my home isn't likely the same as your reality of your home. But it is still a home.
Do you want to be enlightened? or do you just need a hug?
Is it normal to feel this way about religion??

Man what a cop out.
