16.  A major di f ference between re l igion and spir i tuality is belie v ing versus bei n g . Relig i on emphasizes the content of follo w ers' beliefs and how tho s e beliefs play out in their ever y day li v es. On the other hand, the focus of spiritual i ty is on the process of be c oming attuned to one's i nner self.

17.  Where the two overlap is each person's individual experiences that i mpact how t hey think, feel, and ac t .  Are you more spiritual or religious? W e’d love t o hear your answers, so f eel free to share your thoughts in the comme n t section belo w .

Reli g ion a n d spirit u al i ty are n e it h er the same th i ng n o r com p le t ely sep a ra t e fr o m o n e a n o t h e r .
