Episode 36: Is Being Spiritual Better Than Being Religious?
Sep 13, 2023
Matt Frost, Tom Wharin & Karen Simson

Religion is full of rules, right? Do this, don't do that. Being 'spiritual' has become increasingly popular in the Western world - and being religious has greatly decreased. Can you be spiritual without being religious? Isn't it better to focus on the things of the spiritual world and less on rules, dogma and religious organisations like the church?

Tom, Karen & Matt are back in the pub to explore this. With special attention paid to what has been know as the New Age Movement. What is it? Where does it come from? And is it better than organised religion?
Join us for 40 minutes of informed chat and 3 very weird drinks.
