Not particularly. I am spiritual about many things but do not attend any church. My father was an atheist but my mother a devout Catholic. I used to find this odd because they each reached their personal decision based upon the same data. Of course, what confuses the matter somewhat is that there is actually no solid proof that there is a God in the same way that there is no evidence to disprove it. I eventually reached the conlusion that, in the end, all of us actually believe exactly what we want to believe. I am certain that if evidence came to light tomorrow that there definitely could not be a God, my mother would still have been a believer. Contrawise, if God himself had come down and spoken directly to my father in person, dad would have rejected it as a "trick of the light". Unfortunately, there is a great deal of hypocrisy and dishonesty in both scientific and religious circles. It is said that science and religion are incompatible but I don't see why that should have to be true. Certainly, the most extreme scientific views do not agree with more extreme religious views. But there is a middle ground where proven scientific fact is in total harmony with the belief in a creator. Evolution in its strictest sense cuts right across all known scientific laws. But stick to the facts and you have to accept that there is something behind all this. Whether you call this "God" or "ET" is your own choice of words. There are some good things about Christianity but also I admire the devotion of many in Islam. Also, the peaceful nature of Buddhists has to be admired. Take out the nutcases in all these religions and we end up with world peace.

There is no deeper spiritual experience than letting Tony and his mates take me to the car park at Jardin de Barry after work on Thursdays in summertime. I will gladly let them strip me completely naked and then spend the entire afternoon taking turns to fill my holes with hard meat and fresh cream.
