Spirituality Vs Religion Quotes

“Belief in God puts our life on autopilot. We know that someone up there is watching us and is in control. Losing our faith puts off the autopilot, we have to run it manually, and check if everything is alright for ourselves. No wonder religion has a wide appeal; most of us are lazy and would like a supreme being to be in charge”

“Religious nuts of the world, unite! I too will fly my kite. Let us set up a meet between your imaginary pal in the sky with my friend up there nowhere, Mr. NOT. We will let them slug it out. Whoever survives, will be our GOD! Long live the brotherhood of the nuts and naught!”

“We could be spiritual without necessarily being religious, but we can’t possibly be religious without being spiritual; otherwise, we would be missing the essence of religion, regardless of which one we practice. Without spirituality, there is no connection to the Higher Power, whom we call God or the Universe. And without that precious connection with The Divine, we would be just practicing rituals and traditions set by our ancestors at a particular time in history.”

“Religion should teach about hope to come for all, not terror for some”

“Do not believe in a god who is as silly, and meaner than you. For, that would surely be your higher-self, and your stupid alter-ego.”

“Blind-believers and staunch atheists have the same god - namely, a self-deluded, one's own shadow's bot.”

“To those Romans December twenty-fifth was the birthday of the sun. They wrote that in gold letters in their calendar. Every year about that time, the middle of winter, the sun was born once more and it was going to put an end to the darkness and misery of winter. So they had a great feast, with presents and dolls for everybody, and the best day of all was December twenty-fifth. That feast, they would tell you, was thousands of years old- before Christ was ever heard of.”

“A spiritual realm is more obedient than a temporal one. In a spiritual realm, people obey the Supreme Being through his priests; in a temporal realm people don't obey wholeheartedly as they distrust their corrupt officials.”

“Anyone can write a holy book, if he feels god is calling him to do so”

“No holy book is more inspired than the other. They are all inspired according to their gods.”

“When I was a child, I thought like a child. When I became adult, I seek a deeper understanding of life.”

“It is wise to ask questions. The only way for anyone to experience truth is to find it on their own through their own seeking, experience(s), and inner knowing. The depth of knowledge a person obtains through experiencing something firsthand, and by it resonating as truth within one’s heart, far exceeds a belief taught to them using mere words.”
