What Do These Spiritual or Religious Words Mean?

...and why it matters

The words below are ones that you'll often comes across in spiritual and religious literature or talk. Sometimes, these terms can be almost as confusing or meaningless as those of a bureaucracy. Others are fogged over and fuzzed-out as if to propose a Oneness of All Words, which defies meaning and defeats the purpose of communication. A few of these words can be downright weird. They're often purposely twisted or spun or gamed, so it's important to have a clear idea of what spiritual terms really mean. This site's part dictionary and thesaurus, but it's mostly a way of getting at what really matters about these words. It gives a specifically Christian slant on spiritual words, yet draws on their more basic, general, original, or root meanings, as well as meanings from other religions or philosophies. I hope you find the Spirithome.com site helpful in clearing away at least some of the smoke.

Also, these word definitions are available in downloadable PDF format.
