Why you are interested in spirituality?
Superstition is fascinating. I wonder how religious types maintain their beliefs when their “God-given” senses provide evidence contradicting many of them. Either their Gods are cruel or are intentionally distracting and misleading them. It’s interesting how similar the Jesus myth is to earlier Greek/Pagan myths. I’m curious how religion explains dinosaurs and the many-million-year gap between them and man. Still, as children need the Santa threat to behave, some adults need the eternal damnation threat to behave. I’m OK with that.

A spiritual lesson you hope to learn?
Religion and spirituality are both necessary to give some people hope and meaning to their lives. I can respect it without subscribing to it and find happiness without it.
A place in the world where you feel spiritually "connected?"
Museums. They provide evidence that religious types can’t truly reconcile with their beliefs. Life has evolved in such fascinating ways.
