Religious or Spiritual...or Science?

The fastest growing segment of people in 21^stcentury society describes itself as “Spiritual not Religious.”  What does that mean?  Humankind has always sought to understand the world, and our place in it.  In trying to make sense of the world humans developed incomplete explanations, mythology, magic, and false spiritual hierarchy to help us navigate the mysteries of life and death, good and evil, so we could feel safe.  The old paradigms do not work in the modern world, so let’s explore what Einstein called the “Cosmic Religious Feeling” –a drive toward a universal world order--that still motivates us to explain our world—through scientific study, philosophy, contemplation, and yes… faith.
