My God's better than your god
My God's better than yours
My God's better 'cause he's the one that I believe in
My God's better than yours

I always look a bit askance at Pew research stuff. They portray themselves as unbiased, but somehow their results never come out that way.

Maybe reality is biased?

What does "spiritual" mean, exactly?

[LuFins Dad]

When several of the larger mainline denominations start saying do what you want and make up a moral sounding justification for it, it’s no wonder that Dems are considering themselves more “spiritual” rather than religious.

Now do holistic healing…

[Doctor Phibes]

The opposite of spiritual is being served grape juice during communion?

Jesus very clearly said 'WINE'. I was quite frankly appalled at this rejection of Biblical authority.

[Axtremus]

Biblical Jesus did not define "wine," did he?

Questions to ask when it comes to believing in "god":

• Definition (or defining characteristics) of "god"
• Existence of "god" (based on the definition/characteristics above)
• Cardinality of "god", is there one god, multiple gods, fractional number of god(s), irrational number of god(s), imaginary number of god(s), complex/quartonion/octonion number of god(s), space-/time-varying number of god(s), indeterminate number of god(s), etc.
• Name(s)/common reference(s) for god(s), aliases for god(s)

At the same time, Democrats have become more "spiritual,"

You don't get to not have a religion.
