Curious. Now, there is a fine line between religious beliefs and spirituality.

Religion is more a community thing with beliefs shared by multiple people.

Spirituality are more an individual practice, going for self harmony and contentness.

Personally I've been getting more comfortable thinking as a spiritual animist, getting in touch with nature and that sort of thing, I think partly just to satiate a wanderlust of some kind.

Not religious but I'd like to think raw rebirth is a thing without all the karma etc, just raw where you die you come back as something else, nothing in your past life effects what you are etc.
why? idk it's boring as fuck to think everything is black.
i don't do practices or anything it's literally "hey wouldn't it be cool if this was a thing"

Very spiritual myself, to the point most would call me a hippie. I like spending the time I have outside in the forest, I like tending to my garden at home, it feels calming and kinda connecting in a way.

As for afterlife, I believe that once you die, your concience lives on, watching over those close to you. Mainly because that hs always been very comforting to think of when I lose people close to me, that they’re still there, watching over me, and that when I die I will do the same.

used to be diehard atheist/not spiritual at all then had a few fungi related experiences that called those views into question. still dont believe in a god and i dont floss my chakras daily but said experiences were undeniably a bit spiritual and positively life changing

I am a Catholic and would consider myself spiritual, but in a sense that I get quite spiritually connected to people I meet. The more I get to know someone the more connected I feel with them.

There are a lot of different forms of spiritualism in Catholicsm - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_spirituality A lot of them seem a bit old fashioned to follow them devoutly but some of the meaning behind them seem quite comforting.

I'm not spiritual or religious at all. I used to be your average christian, but as I got older I developed mentally and physically, turning me into an atheist.

I do however respect peoples religions and beliefs!

Just to be clear, I’m not a professional ‘quote maker’. I’m just an atheist teenager who greatly values his intelligence and scientific fact over any silly fiction book written 3,500 years ago. This being said, I am open to any and all criticism.

‘In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.’

im atheist but im ok with people who believe in god as long as they dont shove it down my throat

Suffering is upon those who do not believe in the almighty Lord
