Sure but keep James 2:17 in mind.

well it really depends on what you mean by "finding the Creator"
by being "spiritual" or by studying things in the Spiritual realm (as opposed to the physical) you will of course "find" that some things are really out there, things we cannot explain...
by being "religious" or by studying things that are being taught by a specific religion you will also "find" some things... (but it might not be the Creator that you are alluding to)
but anyway people can "find" the Creator in being spiritual (as indeed we cannot really assume that the "Supreme Being" is something that we can readily explain or understand... and people can also "find" the Originator or the Prime Mover by just doing what they have been doing all their lives... for some phsicians, physicists, cosmologists, & other scientitsts as well as pilots, sailors, drivers, miners, fire fighters, peace officers, military service personnel & everyone else have in the course of their studies, their work, their experiences, their circumstances... have come to realize that there MUST be a Creator...

Yes. I was searching after the Creator. I asked God the Creator who He was, and He led me to Jesus Christ. I went through a lot of other ways first. I tried spiritualism, the occult and studied other religions but nothing clicked. None of them gave me the answers or explanations I needed to be convinced. None of them "sounded " true to my soul. Just when I started to think that there was no One true God and it was a hopeless quest, I got real sick and God revealed Himself to me in a very special way, making it an experience that I could never forget. When I met Jesus, I met the Creator and my soul identified that He was the Truth, the Way and the Life.

I dont think most of the questioners understood your question, or thier answer is an obvious no. My favorite quote comes not from the bible but the Buddhist monks: Do not believe something simply because you have heard it. Do not believe anything simply because it has been handed down for many generations. Do not believe anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe anything simply because it is written in Holy Scriptures. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of teachers, elders, or wise men. Believe only after careful observation and analysis, when you find that it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all. Then accept it, and live up to it.

Religions are manmade. Faith in Christ and what He did at the Cross and 3 days later is being very spiritual and is the only way to Heaven. Religions rely on works whereas salvation is a GIFT from God. You cannot EARN a gift. ( seeEphesians 2 :8,9)

Yes.
Creator of All = Source!
You are a projection of 'Source'. The 'spark' that leaps from the Flame is but the same Fire.
This is what the concept of 'Oneness' is about.

If you ask me someone Spiritual and not religious has a better chance of finding the Creator of All because their minds are not warped by human created delusion. They just have to work harder at it because they don't have bibles and priests to tell them what they need or want to hear.

of course...I am not religious...I consider myself spiritual. The epitome of being a Christian is a RELATIONSHIP with God...not a religion with God...because good (empty) deeds won't get you into heaven...nor will monotonous prayers and empty sacrifices...only true fellowship with God will enable you to become all the more spiritual...

Yes!
"Well then, what shall I do? I will do both. I will pray in the spirit, and I will pray in words I understand. I will sing in the spirit, and I will sing in words I understand.1Co 14:15"

Religion is man-made, but the Spirit is of GOD Amighty and HE can always be found through the Spirit, but not always in religion.
May God Bless You
