Note that "organized religion" and "spirituality" are often very different. Helping people find out that they can be spiritual without having to buy into a prescribed belief system is an extremely helpful step that many don't undertake on their own.
The fact that the author ignores that entirely makes me fairly convinced that he's advocating to proselytize, not to introduce people to spirituality. (Part of me wants to book a session with them and talk to them about wood fairies, just to see what happens :)
- aarpmcgee 5y agoI didn't have a feel for what the word 'spirituality' meant until I left organized religion and began the working-it-out for myself. Its relatable and understandable when I see how often people mistake the two, since we're nearly all raised into confusion by confused people.
- pstuart 5y agoI think organized religion is more about organized religion rather than spirituality.
