Ronnie Mathews Developmental Writing II J A Carlberg November 23, 2011 Spirituality versus Faith The essay I choose was written by Neil Bissoondaths entitled “Religious Faith Versus Spirituality.” In this essay Neil Bissoondaths recalls when he first became aware of true spirituality. The author says this experience is nothing like what all those practitioners of different religions told him he would discover when someone you love dies. He was told he would find God, and become a believer.
