I agree with a few of the previous comments. The definition of spiritual and how that word is used is so loaded that I avoid it. Learning can be a great experience. A particular fact or experience can cause one to feel awe and/or amazement. Some people may describe that as spiritual and it might be to them, not so much to me.

As an atheist I feel more of a connection to nature (all life forms with whom we share this planet) than I did as a believer. I also feel a stronger connection to the universe when I gaze into the night sky; but, I would not call it "spiritual" as that attaches a supernatural connotation. It is the natural that amazes me; and the more science I learn, the more amazed I am and the more connected I feel.

Learning about ? No. I find it both enlightening and inspiring.

What borders on spiritual for me, is mingling closely with animals and plants, and wandering in Nature, appreciating it's intricacies !

its science and logic. the spirituality of it depends on the context in which u study it and what u do with the info and what ur goals regarding it all is.

Going outdoors and spending time w nature I find cleansing in a way. I don't know if its "god" but it helps me when the world is too much

No. It’s seems wise It’s only wise to learn about the environment you live in.

I don't know what spiritual means. Still, learning about nature is satisfying.

The more I learn the more awe inspired I am as well as feeling a connection with the universe with my being made of star dust and also with life on Earth with our common ancestry. I think spiritual describes the feeling well but the term is so loaded with the supernatural that I avoid using it so not to give the false impression I also believe in the supernatural.

I can look at the night sky, visit a park, and to a lesser extent watch a well produced nature doc and feel in awe of the universe, but I wouldn't call it feeling spiritual.

Yes, especially since I'm a pantheist. I see God in nature and everything thats created.I think that we can learn a lot from animals, plants, etc. Shamans of the Amazon already know this. You can argue that they are a primitive tribe but for the most part, from what I've read, they live in peace and harmony with nature. I think that within all of us there is a need for a higher intelligence. Weve definitely lost our way , the more "civilized" we get.
