What do you think might be a difference between religion and spirituality? Or do you think they are the same thing?
 
As a Christian (United Methodist specifically), I consider them separate. Religion is organized, but you can practice spirituality within one. Spirituality can be anything.
 
I'm not religious and I never understood the term Spirituality. I've heard people describe me as being very grounded, not sure I understand that comment either.
 
I see religion like an organized system that requires the believe on a God... you pretty much do what the God says...

If there is not God, but there is still a system, I consider that magic.

Spirituality does not have a God or a system... the person pretty much just follow what feels right, might pic and chose from different systems and pretty much made up their own stuff.
