Spiritual but not Religious

An ignorant and safe phrase for someone who doesn’t want to be pigeon-holed into a religion but doesn’t have the mental fortitude to admit or come to the conclusion that they either don’t know if there is and/or don’t believe there is a god or religion is wrong. (Agnosticism and Atheism, respectively).

Amy’s friend is Christian and while she doesn’t believe in the crack pot theories the Bible teaches like homosexuals should be stoned to death or a dude rose from the dead like a zombie, she either doesn’t want to confront her friend for fear of loss (and what a loss that would be), or she just doesn’t want to argue against it, passively condoning her behavior by stating, “you know, I’m just like spiritual but not religious. Also, I know you don’t believe in sex until marriage, but we can totally get ass-blasted by Darren tonight!”
