Spirituality and Religion
Religion, spirituality, and faith are all different terms but they are all closely related to each other. Religion is a set of beliefs. Such as Christianity. Spirituality is the belief in a supernatural being or idea. This could be the belief in religion. Faith is your trust in something. If you are very faithful toward something you believe in it very strongly. I relate to all of these terms. Sometimes I struggle with these terms but in the end these terms are all a big part of my life. Since I was born I have been raised to be faithful towards God. The south puts a very large emphasis on religion and faith. It is a huge part of the culture down here. You can even see this around the USC campus. There are churches everywhere. There are countless student organizations that deal with religion. I have also talked to a lot of people here from the north and although most of them practice religion they don't understand the intensity of it down here. The spirituality of southerners is extremely strong.
