The main reason was that I just stopped believing all the doctrine. Every "spiritual experience" I'd ever had could finally be explained much more easily by basic things I understood about humans and myself than by religious concepts.</p><p>And since then I have those "spiritual experiences" over and over. I feel what I would have once identified as The Spirit when I read about refugees or people who overcame great odds; when I hear moving music or watch an emotional scene in a movie.</p><p>The past few days I've been having spiritual experiences every time I feel a glimmer of hope for the continued existence of my democracy, or when I read about ways of helping vulnerable populations survive this administration.</p><p>I said "long life <a href="https://c.im/tags/faith" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>faith</span></a>" but that's not quite right.
