It occurs to me, from observation mostly, that some people are against “religion” not because of spirituality, but because the people who belong to a said religion are so flawed.
This is a really important point.
Humans are flawed.
We’re weak, greedy, self-centered, egotistical, and a few other unflattering things.
“Religion” is the vision of what we’re to aim for.
It may be unattainable.
Many religious people may not even be close.
i never want them to be my reason for having an argument against spirituality.

Something bigger than humans will ever be able to comprehend created the world we live in today.
The notion that God did a bunch of amazing things in six days and then rested the seventh is ludicrous.
It took billions of years to get to where we are today. Evolution obviously allowed for the human species to evolve into the superior mammal change agent.
Proceed with caution…
Nature is brutal.
It’s challenging for me to watch some nature shows, which can be worse than a horror movie – because its not a movie, it’s real.
I recently watched a horrific Lion attack on another Lion. Four males attacked and began eating another male alive. It was gruesome.
Humans have found a way to civilize the food chain in their favor.
Enter greed and the evolutionary process may implode on itself.
We need “religion” to counter greed and all the brutality that comes with it.
