I love engineering. I was an electrician for many years. Now I tinker.
Then you understand me

I think it is possible to be logically minded and still spiritual. It all works together when we zoom out enough.

I would never go against the belief structure of someone that has found peace in it. That actually stems from my engineering religion: if it works, don't fix it.
That said, in my specific belief structure, the idea of "spirituality" haves no sense, at all. It just blurs my understanding, so I got rid of it, and I even feel better that way. But that's me.

I don't think there is one right way. I just like relating to all types of people and expanding my perspective.

It can be pretty irrelevant for miles, even entire lives. You can be convinced that a man dressed as godzilla is the all powerful god that governs what tone of green the grass will be. And you can go about your entire life with it without wrongly affecting anyone's life.
Now, if you are convinced that the earth is flat and demand planes to stop flying like if the earth is round, there we have a problem.

As you said: "So, again, it's how we connect."

How do we know if the earth is flat or round? A lot of pilots say it's flat. I have no way of knowing.

You do, in the exact same way firsts physicians did. The simplest first steps to garner that understanding were made by Eratostenes, and you can read his method.
