"Religion is what we do with moments of intense spirituality. Its whatever practice we have, whether its going to church, whether its how we integrate sacred texts into our lives.
Being religious or taking religious elements into our lives is not saying I agree with everything this religion says. What you are saying is I've had an incredible experience, either of intense suffering or joy, or both. And it has demanded some action of me. It has demanded some continuity from me. And this is the only way I know how, is to try to find some form in it and try to share it with people."
