Spiritual, Religious, Neither. Which One Are You?

When it comes to the subject of religion, I can honestly say that I am more spiritual - in the sense that I always thank the universe for things. Sure, I could say I thank God, and sometimes I do say that, but to me, I feel we have a soul, but in a more energetic type of way. Some people are religious and pray to God. I have a cousin who is so incredibly religious that it can be a put off in many ways. I appreciate that she is faithful in her Christianity, it's admirable. I just don't feel it the same way, which is another reason, I am the black sheep of my family.
I had a sort of argument with my cousin, and she was upset because I always use the word Universe, instead of God. I told her, well the Universe is God. She went on to share religious quotes and tell me that it's a "sin" to say Universe, and that the Bible is all true. She even volunteered to "change" me. This is the main reason we don't get along. Anyway, I want to know if you believe in a higher power as a God, or as a source of energy, or if you don't believe at all.
There is absolutely no judgment here, I pretty much respect anyone, religious or not. We are all human, and we all have a right to believe what we want. One of my very good friends is Atheist, so. To each there own, with respect to others.

That's fine too. I have some very good friends who are also Atheist, and they are one of the most genuine people that I know.

I do not understand why some like doing this
when it comes to faith I prefer to leave any person alone

I absolutely agree with you on this! I would never do that to anyone. I believe that everyone has their own beliefs, but I was just curious to see the viewpoint of others.

i say heavens but i should start using universe as well. i was never too religious but after some bad things in my life, i decided to be spiritual, no more religious. maybe i only say thank god for some things but it is more a figure of speech here.
