Spiritualism

1. The belief or philosophy that the truth can mostly be found through our independent moral & spiritual conscience and contact with the divine-not just through sacred texts.

2. A system of belief or religious practice based on supposed communication with the spirits of the dead, especially through mediums, (ie. spiritism).
'In spiritualism, following just one religion or philosophy is narrow-minded and limits our knowledge, whereas spirituality (following our own moral conscience / many religions or philosophies) is open-minded and grows us in knowledge.'

Dialectical Spiritualism 

Dialectical Spiritualism, also Dialectical Supernaturalism, Dialectical Occultism and Dialectical Esotericism, is a spiritualist theory that political, historical and social events result from the interaction between physical and extraphysical forces and are interpretable as a series of contradictions and their solutions. The conflict is believed to be caused by the material needs and extraphysical needs and the interaction and connection between both.
"I like dialectical spiritualism, it might be useful when people consider to study about deistology, spiritology, extraphysics and metaphysics as well. Mainly on the understading of how the physical and extraphysical can interact between each other and how both are necessary for a good understanding of reality and even complement dialectical materialism as well."

Radical Spiritualism 

Radical Spiritualism, also reffered as Spiritual Radicalism and shortened as RadSpirit, RadSpiritual, SpiritRad and SpiritualRad, is a spiritualist ideology, derived from New Spiritualism, that supports that materialists, atheists, anti-theists, physicalists and positivists want to kill and disprove spirituality, spiritualism, esoterics and religion with all possible means, mainly using of science, more specific natural sciences and sciences like neuroscience and psychology, and that there's a spiritualicide happening and that Cultural Atheism is actually reality and majority of spiritual people or are ignoring it or are agreeing with it and even protecting it. Radical Spiritualism supports that all spiritual people who is against spiritualicide, cultural atheism and all attemps to kill and disprove spiritual, religious and esoteric things, should unite themselves and fight all of those things before it's too late and cultural atheist finally take over and spirituality, spiritualism, esoterics and religion are completely killed and disproved and considered as "pseudosciences". Radical spiritualism is considered by being culturally left and economically left and it supports spiritualicism, extraphysicalism, division between natural and spiritual sciences and opposition to positivism, materialism, physicalism, new atheism, anti-theism and scientism.
"Radical Spiritualism is actually ok considering the way that our world nowadays is actually walking into, even it's extremely radical on telling almost all spiritual communities online and irl are a bad example of spirituality and only the radspiritual ones are a good example or the best example of spirituality."

Praxeological Spiritualism

Praxeological Spiritualism, also Praxeological Supernaturalism, Praxeological Occultism and Praxeological Esotericism, is a spiritualist theory that seeks to study the influence of the spiritual and of extraphysics on human behavior and actions, it believes that all human behavior and actions are intentionally influenced by the extraphysical level such as all, or almost all, extraphysical behavior can be influenced by physical level. Praxeological spiritualism also advocates similar principles than dialectical spiritualism and considers dialectical spiritualism as an important concept for praxeological spiritualism.
"Praxeological Spiritualism is an interesting spiritualist theory, mainly it unites elements of dialectical spiritualism with praxeology, or better saying, it unites dialectical spiritualism with dialectical praxeology, and it might be useful for the survival of spiritualism and supernaturalism during those times of scientistic materialism and cultural atheism. Besides help to understand spiritualism with an individualist outlook."

spirituality snob 

A hypocritical person who claims to be "spiritual" and believes him/herself to have the best beliefs while looking down on others for believing in traditional religions such as Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, etc. Because they choose to mix and match or even make up their own beliefs, spirituality snobs tend to be egotistic or narcissistic. A spirituality snob is very condescending and claims that everyone else is judgmental when in fact he or she is the most judgmental person in the room.
When will that spirituality snob shut up about how she claims she is so much better than anybody else?

spirituality 

You don't have to believe in a certain deity. You don't have to subscribe to a religion or attend group ceremonies. You don't have to believe in one thing and stick to it.

You can be atheist, agnostic, agnostic theist, agnostic atheist, a devout Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, ANYTHING.

If you believe that all things/beings are connected in some way, that the cosmos manifest the pattern of life, that science, truth, and openness to possibilities are essential, that there is something more to animals than physical mass and that love is a force that we to this day don't know everything about but live in awe of what life has to offer, you are spiritual.

People will always try to tell you to pick a team. To cut the bullshit and stop saying your spiritual. Those people can also kiss your ass. And when they question your beliefs and intelligence, simply give them the okay to do so.
Spirituality: "Live and let live."
