POPSReligion - Emotional or Spiritual A negative conception of religion. I had high hopes for this heading and was completely disappointed in the discussion that followed. the only emotions the writer discussed was guilt, fear, and anger. My emotional tie to my Unitarian religion has a large emotional component. The emotions of love, hope and compassion. Maybe I have a spiritual understanding but because that concept is undefined by the writer I'm not sure what difference he makes between spiritual and emotional. There are many out there who are open minded about their search for truth and meaning, who earnestly attempt to figure it out for themselves what its all about. Not all religious people have closed minds and it is closed minded to think so.
