Why is it important to distinguish religion from spirituality?
Religion aims to build one’s character. It shapes one’s beliefs, attitudes, and actions by giving importance to the adherence of rules. This unites people who share a religion, as they share character traits and outlooks on life. On the other hand, spirituality concentrates more on each person’s individual soul.

How do you differentiate religion from non-religious beliefs?
Differentiating religious from nonreligious belief systems is sometimes easy, but other times rather difficult, as demonstrated by the arguments people have over what qualifies as a religion. Establishing a set of characteristics which tend to coalesce around religions can help, but that isn’t always enough.

Philosophy is sometimes confused with religion because the two topics tend to cover the same basic issues.
What are the pros and cons of religious labels?
The downside can be tribalism, an assumption that insiders are better than outsiders, that they merit more compassion, integrity and generosity or even that violence toward “infidels” is acceptable. But the upside is that religious or spiritual labels offer a way of defining who we are.
