I think "spiritualist" types get way more flak than those of the Agnostic and Atheistic views than they really should. Especially when you consider many don't understand the pagan roots some of it is grounded in. It makes them far more susceptible to the idea of a higher power, as they already believe in one in the most vague of terms.

Think of it, most (not all) genuine hippie types love and cherish the stars (heavens) and earth. Two things God Himself created. Sounds like only a few steps away from understanding the greater spirit of self and its place. Way more than the aforementioned disbelievers of anything spiritual.

Now I am not all too good with all this, as I am still learning my place with God in all this since August 2020. But as once a spiritualist person, I see more Christians denounce those like that than those that have chosen to keep their eyes forever shut.

Just an observation of mine.
