(970 posts)Therefore your typical, liberal Christianity often, typically, claims to avoid dogmas, preaching. And to avoid ever telling others whether their religion is right or wrong.
Still, you do often seen to hint to atheists that they at least, are wrong That although we can't say much that is definite about religion, or God, we can at least be that there is one. Of some undetermined type.
Most recently you are presenting a typical minister's theory; that there is a universal spirituality. And that even Atheists have it.
In this way, you or thousands of ministers like you, may at times hint that even atheists are partly faithful, or even religious.
However? Many atheists would probably counter that overall, whatever inner feelings they may have, are so different, that they should not be called "religious " Even the vague, seemingly general word "spiritual," might also still be inaccurate.
So finally there is less overlap between atheists and religionists, than Guil would like to assert.
