It is easy to talk on religion, but difficult to practice it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
For many people religion can be so easy they stumble right over it.
I talk about religion because it's one of the ways human beings find power and belonging. Religion is more than just that - I think faith traditions give us ways to talk about experiences of the numinous, too - but power and belonging are a big part of it.
Religion is like magic. It is all about tricks.
Some people think that all the equipment you need to discuss religion is a mouth.
I've dabbled in several different religions.
It's very difficult to distinguish between what a person believes and what they say they believe.
Like Yoga, the spiritual life is actually very difficult.
I do not find it easy to articulate thoughts about religion. I remain the sort of person who turns off 'Thought for the Day' when it comes on the radio.
People aren't religious because it's easy not to be. Like anything, it's habitual, and once it's a habit it's no longer hard.
Speaking is physically difficult for me.
