You're "spiritual" but not religious? Is that a good thing to be? Could there be risks to that? What does that actually mean? On this week's episode of Godsplaining, Fr. Joseph-Anthony and Fr. Patrick sit down to discuss why data on those identifying as 'spiritual' is decreasing, how spiritual people are really just Catholic, and more.
