Chriustianity, which our original full form antherm espouses in no uncertain
terms is clear on that.
God is notfound in buildings of brick & wood.
Or as one athiest mate f mine put it:
Spirituality is what's inside -- religion's just the part you pay for.
Technically, good religion is about us choosing rules to help shape us, in
spite of ourselves & our creature roots.
We are a herd creature, so we feel good affliating with a likeminded grouping
with a clear leader(alpha)
Love widely, & there are3 main type of love, at least as mentiuoned in the
Greek Bible:
agapΘ: love without expectation of reward/return (aka
unconditional/spiritual/unrequited love)
philoso: the oove of affiliation (to gfamily, to friendsm, to
affiliations/clubs/etc.)
eros: the love of emotion & passion/sex
For one's spouse, one hopes one has all 3 working well, in both directions.
