I mean within one psyche, not just a rational person and religious person being friends. Reason-based "religions" like secular humanism have always seemed to me to be very forced, like a reasonably shaped peg in a faith-based hole, but I've increasingly felt a very profound and even spiritual connection to the universe, or reality, or whatever you want to call it (and no, I'm not on drugs).
It seems to me that spirituality is a fundamental function of human consciousness, but is sorely lacking in rational individuals. Do you think that there will ever be a day that rationality and spirituality will be united? Personally, I really hope so. I think collectively we could achieve some amazing things if we stopped antagonizing each other and set our collective consciousness toward discovery and exploration.
