The following is how I define, respectively, the terms "Spirituality", and "Religion".
Spirituality--Humanity's premiere irrational faculty that is generally invoked to provide warm, fuzzy feelings to either enhance, or escape the rigors and/or pleasantries of perceived reality.
Religion--Spirituality given method and purpose through the use of the rational aspect of the human mind, usually taking the form of dogma or code.
Problem is... too often it inevitably becomes more about the code.
