Yesterday I questioned Joe Carter's assertion that Universalism was obviously a "real religion." Joe has elaborated by explaining what he believes constitutes a religion.
Basically Joe concludes that any belief system that involves a belief in spiritual beings, regardless of what type of beings are at issue, is a religion. I'm really not in the mood to think about this too much. I'm not sure I'm convinced, but at least I understand his position now.
Update: And in other news, Joel Fuhrman, a former Unitarian, responds to Joe's original post.
