Spiritual but not Religious
Do you identify as being spiritual but not religious?
What does this mean to you?
Do you have specific beliefs?
*Note I want to be upfront and state this is not how I identify, but wanted this space for people plus I do look forward to learning from you!
@AffyAvo I'm not sure. I think I'm religious. But I don't class myself as any religion. I believe in God and angels. I think everyone needs someone or something to believe in. We all need a little faith. Whatever that may be

@Helgafy awww thankyou for sharing thoughs ❤❤ I have a big smile on my face now ❤❤
@AffyAvo I am religious and spiritual at the same time I guess.My religion is my main lifestyle .Religion makes me less stressed about this life and that even living to 100, time flies what matters is to follow the path that you won't regret later on the afterlife
@yaswecan7 less stress sounds wonderful. I bet you can live life more fully when less stressed.
Yes, I practice spirituality as a polytheist and is not a religious.
To me there is a clear difference between a practice and a religion, one has already established set of rules while the other is free to interpret and personal to each individual in their own personal practice.
My belief system is mainly African Spiritualism.
@EshuCelestial thank you for sharing and expanding my idea of spirituality. I see how religion can be very set as far as rules to follow. I do see my practice evolving and changing so in that way it is more open to interpretation and improvisation.
I wonder if anyone who practices one of the traditional religions cares to comment on this topic if religion is a fixed set of rules or guidelines or if your practice is more innovative than mainstream religion.
