the original poster thought that spirituality is more important than religion. I am saying that they are equal - neither one is needed to give or recieve love.
If we are a reflection/creation of GOD, (and who knows what GOD is anyway) than your only purpose is to give and recieve love. There is nothing to learn here. Everything else is an ILLUSION.
I could be wrong though, so take my post with a grain of unprocessed salt.
