spirituality .vs. Religion

I think people oft attack spirituality, confusing it with religion, which is the institutionalization of spirituality. Spirituality is fine. When spiritualism is put into religion dogma (Science, Christianity, or Atheism)it becomes a socio-political issue that starts rifts. What do you guys think?

Spiritualism is in the realm of philosophy, theories and open mindedness, with allotment to change, malleable and tactical; Spiritualism is broad, and vague- encapsulating many different people.

Whilst Religion, is a much more demanding, strict and tyrannical institution. It is blind to reasoning, closed to any disproving logic, easily angered, and inwardly punishing. They believe in a more hierarchical approach, when it comes to the way we are "supposed to" live, and overall follow each other around in circles indefinitely with occasional change, and constant contempt for those who are not in the politically correct little circles they so "righteously" fit in too.

Since this thread is on 4chan what example not more fit then the rift between Anonymous and Scientology!
Scientology of course resembling the strict and illogical blundering of religion,
And Anonymous being the voice of reason, fairness, equality, and above all else, Truth.
