After all, this is religion AND spirituality. Not being religious does not make a person non-spiritual. Being spiritual does not mean a person has to be religious either.

As long as they are not here specifically to antagonize the religious like the vast majority of Atheists are, I have no problem with them. It's mostly just the Atheist trolls.
Some atheists are genuinely spiritual people who subscribe to Taoism or a similar philosophy but have no faith in a divine being. For the most part, I like them. But the Atheists who are here specifically to tear down religion, I have less than no use for them and they do not belong.

I did not know it was a problem, if you mean you get criticized, everyone does, if you are religious or not. If you are religious, you get criticized for being religious, if you are not religious, you get criticized for not being religious, so don't mind those with critical minds.
I'm a Christian, and get criticized for it, yet I feel bad for those who are not Christian and still get criticized for not being a Christian, it is wrong to hate someone just because they don't believe like you do!! Jesus said to love everyone, no matter what!

I could in all likelihood answer it in the two categories for you, because of fact i'm quasi non secular, regardless of the undeniable fact that I relatively have trustworthy atheistic leanings. I say coach it basically as component of a comparative religions study classification in extreme college, as an non-obligatory, making confident all religions get equivalent time. it won't be compelled on scholars, it won't be provided to everybody youthful than the age of 15 till is it provided by utilizing the mothers and dads, in the confines of their very own domicile and church communities. I relatively have seen, as a make certain AND a instructor, what human beings attempting to rigidity their faith into the colleges does. colleges already make exceptions for weight loss plan, fasting on non secular days, even day without work - i understand we actually accomodated many scholars for those products. even regardless of the undeniable fact that, i've got additionally seen the conflict pass on approximately non secular symbols, and seen a substitute lose her pastime for forcing a bible- with highlights and tabs in it - on a junior extreme student who handed off to be donning a pentacle, yet in no way stated a factor approximately her non secular ideals in school to everybody. in my view? save it for the non-public colleges and for college training and in the domicile. faith needs to stay out of my lecture room different than while reported objectively in a international analyze classification. I have not got any tolerance for faith based hatred, call calling, bashing, and so on. and that i've got seen scholars do it, vehemently. And the place did they study that detest of different religions? by utilizing no ability in the college room. in basic terms save it out of public colleges as a factor of the formal practise and classic college day. Pray all you like once you like, the place you like - I have not got any issue with that. I relatively have very lots of issue while it turns into mandated and compelled. EDIT - Tameka, darling - Cosmotology is getting to grasp approximately skincare and makeup application - that's elegance college, darling. invoice ok- do a sprint analyze. Prayer isn't banned in school - you may pray everywhere you like in a school. What you won't be able to do is rigidity the full college right into a team prayer.

I agree totally. It is so hard to explain to people that you can be spiritual and not religious.

I don't think it's a problem. Sure some people get upset when they're attacked though. No one appreciates being called stupid because they believe in a higher power.

WHOA!!! What about the NON-Religious / NON-Spiritual?
- It's *ABOUT* R&S... NOT 'for' R&S.
- These affect *each and every one* of us - ATHEISTS, Too.
- And it's a PUBLIC, OPEN, NON-Apartheid-style Forum.
As Y!A’s 5th Horseman said:
Is asking, "Why do atheists care about R&S?" like asking, "Why do peaceniks care about war?"
“Why do conservationists care about urban sprawl,
why do capitalists care about communism,
why do dietitians care about trans fats?”
