It seems to me that "spiritual" means religion lite. It's just easier to pretend you are virtuous when you skip the difficult stuff. Maybe that's why Evangelicals make some people uncomfortable. They are religious. Being all-in means extreme these days.
Doing things half assed is less burdensome. People who aren't half assed about religion are annoying. Is it because they needle the conscience of the spiritual?

‘New Age’ beliefs common among both religious and nonreligious Americans
Many U.S. Christians – as well as the religiously unaffiliated – hold “New Age” beliefs, which include belief in reincarnation and astrology.
Many of those that have kicked religion but kept 'spirituality' have moved over to crystal healing, psychics or some other such nonsense. People like Deepak Chopra have capitalized on this and it can be quite harmful. Alternative treatments have been making their way into the mainstream.
Not long ago my doctor actually referred me to a fucking acupuncturist. My. Fucking. DOCTOR. She has a degree and everything.
interestingly enough, those not spiritual and not religious still buy into this crap at almost a 50% rate. l have no idea what they think that garbage is if not 'spiritual.'
Simple explanation. Ignorance. No one bothers to search the scriptures daily to see for themselves "....what is truth and what is not". Salvation is to important to leave it in the hands of another, depending upon another to mold what they call truth. (Acts 17:11)

Do not forsake the gathering of yourselves together. Hebrews 10:25 even more so as the day draws near. So those leaving are saying no to God. They only think they are spiritual. Jesus assures all-Only those living now to do his Fathers will get to enter his kingdom. And Hebrews 10:25 is the Fathers will. How easy it is to fool oneself into losing out on entering Gods kingdom.
Maybe they just found false religion.

A lot of so-called Christian’s are so judgmental. I have never been religious. I know right from wrong. I am very companionate but don’t feel a need to belong to a group, or cult. My spiritual beliefs are personal and private.
