Are you anti-spirituality?

Spirituality is a complex concept. In one sense we are very spiritual--in the sense of the term "spiritual" as it refers to a strong sense of emotion, such as a deep appreciation of the arts or a sense of wonder at the scale or beauty of the universe, i.e., the "poetry of science." This sense of spirituality is compatible with freethought. Many great freethinkers talk and write emotionally about their respect and awe for the size and age of the universe, the beauty of science, or the power of the arts. However, we reject leaping from statements about emotions to factual claims about the universe. Freethinkers take "spiritual" claims that deal with the physical universe very skeptically.
