wow.

Assuming the definition of the word 'spirituality' is being this version...

matters relating to-
humankind's worth, meaning of exsistence
relationship to other life/matter,
relationship to things outside of the realm of the senses (time, space infinity, etc.)

I'm thinking that spirituality is a belief system of how humans choose to deal with the conscious thought of these matters, how to put a material sense on what they cannot see, feel, hear, or touch. To connect with the "un-connectable", and to use this connection to form a method of relation to meaning, other beings, and things undetectable.

All of us have a belief system....I think this is our spirituality by definition.

Some say its God, or a god/s, or rationalism, or philosophy....most thinking theirs more valid than another for differing reasons.

Much to discuss, love the thread....

I'm an irrational christian by the way.

Thanks for letting me share folks.

This has been a short public service annoucement of my 2 cents....
