Great posts, and views on this subject.
I've done a fair bit of study on most religions and pagan, occult and various cultures. For the most part it would appear that most of those who follow anything written seem to follow 'religion', instead of the spirituality. From what I've personally seen of christian & muslim fundamentalists, many of them follow just the religion and seem to be afraid of the spiritual aspects, they fear anyone who dabbles past what has been put in written words. Spiritualists and Occultists are often cast into the 'new age' description, and although many of them are not necessarily wanting a 'label' they tend to get stuck with one for seeking out what is 'beyond' the eye.
My question is this, what does it matter how another finds their comfort with the energy around them, as long as its between the individual and their own faith in how they choose to believe.
The labels and tags make no difference ,in my opinion, its just the faith that counts. ;-)
