Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Religion can be a component of spirituality, and the two share some commonalities, but they are not the same. Religion is community focused; spirituality is individualistic. Religion is measurable and objective; spirituality is subjective. Religion is systematic, orthodox, and organized; spirituality is informal. Religion is behavior oriented with outward practices; spirituality is emotionally oriented with inward practices. Religion is authoritarian in terms of behavior; spirituality is not, as one is accountable to oneself. Religion is doctrine-oriented and separates the good from the evil; spirituality is not doctrine-oriented and is unifying.
