text: what is religion? where i live you can actually see the difference between the people who say they are religious and those who truly have faith. have you noticed this before? religion is not the same thing as spirituality,  religion kills.  spirituality comes from within and causes no harm, guides you with virtue.  lets you know right from wrong and helps you do the right thing... with religion, it's ok to kill your neighbor, brother, son, daughter, in the name of ... what???  surely not love?
