There is of course a difference between a non-philosophical religious topic and a philosophy of religion question.
Thanks!

I believe spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) manifests as bravery, confidence, grace, honesty, love, and inner peace.

Yes indeed there is an unblockable inroad to such babble!! We shall fight them from the science classrooms, the beaches and the air, we shall never surrender!! I've got to give up these cigars. Thanks for taking the time to respond Scott.
Philosophy of religion is a branch of philosophy that asks questions about religion. As with all philosophies, the topics at hand are generated by those who participate. In the philosophy of religion, these may include but are not limited to the nature and existence of God, religious language, miracles, prayer, the problem of evil, and how religion and other value-systems such as ethics interrelate. Religious philosophy, on the other hand, is the philosophical thinking that is inspired and directed by religion, such as Christian philosophy and Islamic philosophy. As an alternative, philosophy of religion is the philosophical thinking about religion. It is designed such that it can be carried out dispassionately by what are thought of as those in two "camps": adherents or believers, and non-believers. [1]
