Spiritual not religious

Just an observation I wish to make. I am finding a lot of people who say they are spiritual but not religious. I think some people get disenchanted with their respective religious institutions. In my own opinion, the most important thing for a person is to follow the basic rules of humanity and to follow the basic rules of human conduct.

Take "not telling the truth" for example. What does this mean? It may mean different things to different people.

Then there are "white lies".

When a person does not tell the truth on a consistent basis, people will not believe him or her anymore and then this sort of person cannot have the love and confidence of those around him. Even the family members will look upon that person with disdain.

However, a person who tells the truth and "walks the talk" will be respected by all.
