For sure, I definitely get the community aspect of organized religion. I still generally think that people can get that sense of community from other venues without the supernatural stuff attached, but I don't begrudge people for wanting to believe whatever spiritual thing it is they believe together. I should think that this would be a rather nice sensation.

What irks me a bit about spirituality in generally stems more from things like what>>11905838 was saying, stating that divinity obviously exists and that we definitely know that supernatural event x, y, and z happened thousands of years ago.

The lack of credulity is something I find troubling in people who express such beliefs. Wanting to live like Jesus is admirable, do so if it makes you feel good, but believing that what can only really be described as myths from our ancient past are literally true and accurate accounts of events is somewhat troubling. What else is this person willing to believe after giving up this much to faith?
