Labels

I'd like to label myself. Labels make things a lot simpler, even if they aren't entirely accurate. When it comes to spirituality, however, I can't even apply the really generic labels like theist, atheist, pantheist, deist, dualist, etc., much less consider myself a member of a particular religion...ugh, the very word makes me shudder. I think all human beings, for whatever reason, have some need to interact with the sacred, but it seems like the process of defining and codifying that interaction hopelessly obscures whatever we thought of as sacred in the first place. There must be something more intuitive, less contrived that would satisfy that need. Let's see if I can find it.
