Get the spiritualitis mug.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?

Get the spirituality snob mug.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."

Get the spirituality mug.Spirituality is the belief that there is a god or higher power, but one does not know who that higher power is. People who believe in spirituality tend to realize there are numerous religions in the world and feel as though they have no right to say one religion is right and another is wrong, when there is no actual proof any, except that some human a long time ago wrote something down. Spiritual people still pray, meditate, etc because they believe there is a higher power and do not believe we are all alive on this earth due to coincidence. They are very open-minded, and strive to be good people.
John: What religion are you?
Jane: I am not religious, I am spiritual (spirituality), because I do not feel that I have the right to say that Christians are correct and Buddhists are wrong when I do not know who is right or wrong. I pray to a higher power.

Get the Spirituality mug.1. Belief in the spirit, soul, often as it relates to religious, sacred, or otherwise noncorporeal matters. A little metaphysics and philosophy are peripherally related as well, as its purpose is to give us perspective on life and what to do with it.
2. The application of any sort of philosophy, however defined, regardless of whether the person in question has any spiritual beliefs or not. This use of the word is so vague that it can be redefined to mean anything, even something that is completely materialistic.

I'm sorry, "belief in the laws of science" is not spirituality. "Realising your own inner divinity" is not spirituality. "Being nice to people" is not spirituality. If you have no spiritual beliefs, you are not spiritual, simple as that.
Of course, one shouldn't be afraid to call oneself and atheist or agnostic. It doesn't mean you are shallow, immoral, closed-minded, intellectually dishonest, or anything of that sort.

Get the spirituality mug.People who still want the mental crutch of Religion, but want to be as vague as possible about it so its harder to argue with their bullshit. These people generally lack the ability to form coherent logical arguments, struggle to think carefully and deeply about subjects and don't like the rules and restrictions imposed by Religion. Their position is so vague as to become difficult to argue against, allowing them to not only benefit from the mental crutch that usually is attached to religion, but hold a smug air of superiority that will piss off any reasonable critical thinker no end.
Bill: "What do you believe in?"
Jill: "I'm spiritual."
Bill: "So what does that even mean? Do you believe in spirits? Religion? God? Faries? Science? How does spirituality even have an application in your life?"
Jill: "No, I don't believe in religions, look how harmful they are to the world, I am spiritual."
Bill: "So basically, you hiding behind a wall of vague bullshit and feeling comforted by your mental crutch?"
Jill: "Once you in touch with your spiritual side, you'll understand."
Bill: "Once you stop being vague and full of bullshit, we can actually have an intelligent discussion".
Jill: "I'm spiritual."

Get the Spirituality mug.Spiritualicism, also Spiriticism, is a philosophy and ideology that advocates the massive search and research for spiritual beings and spiritual existence, this may includes massive investments on Techno-Agnosticism, Techno-Theism, Techno-Spiritualism, Scientific Deism, Extraphysicism, Divinialism and the adoption of policies for massive spiritualization of the masses and transition to a spiritualist society. Spiritualicism also advocates science should try its best to study about spiritual and extraphysical issues with all their efforts, such as they search for extraterrestrials, and it even advocates that xenos probably exist at spiritual level, making the search for spiritual issues more necessary and practical, even advocating colonization of spiritual worlds and turning all human beings into materialized spiritual beings as happens on extraphysicism and divinialism. Spiritualicism also opposes scientific atheism, neo-atheism, materialism, skepticism and nihilism.
"Spiritualicism is usually non-quadrant and usually has no political leanings, it is more about the technological idea of the search for spiritual beings and life, spiritualicism might be left leaning sometimes due to the ideas of Bioequalism and Extraterrestrialism. Spiritualicism is considered as the spiritual version of Galacticism."
