WHAT IS SPIRITUALISM?
Spiritualism became a formally recognized religion in the ninetieth century, although it's origins can be traced back to the 5th Century. A commonly accepted definition of a religion refers to the worship of a deity. For Spiritualists this involves the worship God. Spiritualists may personally use different names for this, such as the God Force, the Divine Spirit or the Great Spirit. Spiritualism is based on seven principles, as outlined by the Spiritualist National Union (SNU). These principles serve as guidance for a way of live, but are open to interpretation. We believe in free will, and encourage individuals to conduct themselves as they see fit; in fact 'Personal Responsibility' is one of those principles.
