    i see them like this

    spiritual = the belief in a greater power of some kind , but not bound by practices and dogma of organized religion

    religious = the belief in a greater power of some kind , with religion guiding you in a specific manner of behavior and lifestyle to attain a close bond with ones greater power

    do you guys feel that they are one in the same ?
    do you guys see religion as a tool or as a hiderence to your own beliefs?

    me personally , im catholic , and i love my faith

    but i feel the system of the church has failed in many ways

    i dont really feel the church is my faith , i feel my faith is my church

    its strange to support the faith but not the administration of the church
