Evidence-Based Spirituality, also known as Scientific Spirituality, Evidence-Based Spiritualism and Scientific Spiritualism, is a form of spirituality that seeks the development of a scientific approach on spirituality and the search for spiritual evidences for spirituality, it opposes the notion that evidences are only highly stringent, repeatable, double-blind, peer reviewed, materialism-compatible research, for all phenomena and it believes in "Different Methods for Different Domains" and in Epistemological Pluralism in order to study spiritual phenomena like Near-Death Experiences, Astral Projection, Mediumship, Out-of-body experiences, Spiritual phenomena, Spiritual experiences, spiritual healing, spirits, souls, consciousness, afterlife, extraphysics, extraphysical life, spiritual worlds, other dimensions and so on. Evidence-Based Spirituality also opposes the notions of scientism and neopositivism and it often uses the notions of extraphysicalism, extramaterialism, extranaturalism and spiritualicism for its studies and the separation of spiritual sciences from natural sciences where natural sciences cannot determine spiritual things and it's a thing that only spiritual sciences can actually determine.
"The notion of evidence-based spirituality might be really good in order to counter the material reductionism and the neopositivism inside the spiritual community and scientific community and the development of spiritual sciences and even lead into new discoveries related to spirituality and everything related to it."

When a so called man of God lines his subjects up like bowling pins and throws his coat or waves his hand at them they all fall, fall down like bowling pins. (strike!!). Claiming to be slain in the Holy spirit.
The pastor invoked an altar call and 10 people came forward. He lined them up like bowling pins then after throwing his coat toward them they all fell down like a strike in bowling. This is Spiritual Bowling.

A prosaic name for the toilet.
Men who don't have access to a private outdoor space will often repair to the WC for a bit of peace and quiet.
Woman: You were in the toilet a long time. Are you constipated again?
Man: No I just needed to spend some time on my spiritual allotment.
Woman (mutters under breath): That's why it smells like manure in there then.
