Description RANT APPROACHING

This is NOT to incite riots amongst the inhabitants of dA. I'm merely trying to get my views across.

That being said... I think that there is a HUGE difference between being "religious" and being "spiritual". Being "religious", to me, means being a strict follower of whatever religion you adhere to. Being "spiritual", on the other hand, to me means that you strive, not to follow all the regulations of whatever religion you're in, but to become more like whatever deity it is that you serve. I'm in the "spiritual" category- yes, following the 10 Commandments and the other rules in the Bible is important to me, but it's not the most important part of being a Christian. I believe that Christianity isn't a religion- it's a relationship.

Now, as I already stated, I'm only doing this to get my personal views out to the dA public. If it gets to the point where I'm getting excessive amounts of flames, I'll just deactivate the comments thing. But don't expect me to take it down.

I like this oh so much. Religion should be more of a relationship....at least, it is to me.

Kool Graphic. I also agree that your Faith should be a relationship with your God and not based on how good you are per say.

Sweet! Yeah. I can relate to that. When people say "religious" it makes me think of such strict religions. Like, not being like mean or spotlighting to flame, okay, so understand, but I always think of old Catholicism. So strict, ya know? So "spiritual" is good. I like that better. If I had a subscription, I'd totally use it!!! Very nicely put Drew-Kun!

you should make another one, but the religious symbol being animated to cycle through all sorts of religious symbols (ie. star of david, cresent and star, yin yang)
cause that would be really kick ass

if I can find an animation program, I'll definitely do that.
