She said a large number of spiritul types could be used by atheists she did not say.

Well, yeah. She sort of did say that. She brought up a majority of the types of spiritualism and said they were compatible with atheism. That's generalizing. It's not hard to understand.

Not hard to understand, no, not what happened though. You don't know how she used many. 10% of a million could mean many people....she didn't say that it is generally compatible and I am sure she didn't mean it.

Of course she didn't say it, but she displayed examples of a few direct definitions of what spiritualism supposedly is, seeing as it's very expendable. Then, she deemed them compatible with Atheism. She generalized.

No.
She said those examples are compatible.
One example would be absolutely enough to answer the question.
No generalizing going on.

She stated a few types of spiritualism that are widely conceived as what spiritualism is, excluding the "Soul" definition. That's two of three. Then, she said these two were compatible with Atheism. She generalized that the basic majority definitions she mentioned of spiritualism were compatible with Atheism.
So simple.

She didn't. She said that the definitions she gave were compatible.
2 and 3 are Prime Numbers...am I generalizing 2 and 3 now?
There was no generalizing, just attributing definitions to a concept....as such absolutely acceptable and a perfectly good answer to the question. That you object to the usage of the word "many" in .... numerous posts, is of no matter.

Your analogy is irrelevant to the scenario here. She basically spelt out the definition for spiritualism and deemed it applicable to atheism. GENERALIZATION, Bardock.

A definition...not the.
Also leaving room for other definitions. Just saying that those she named are applicable.
NO GENERALIZATION.

No, she basically left room for A definition, Bardock. She basically stated what spiritualism essentially was and classified it as applicable to atheism. Get real.

I am real. Also able to comprehend what is said.
"For some people, it involves a variety of very personal things like self-realization, philosophical searching, etc."
One definition of spirituality is included in that....so far so easy.
For many others, it is something like a very deep and strong emotional reaction to the wonders of life.
Another definition that is supported by a considerable amount of people (not a majority)....also pretty easy so far.
"All of these and similar senses of spirituality are entirely compatible with atheism."
These two definitions are compatible with atheism as would be others that are similar to those......
See how she nowhere said those are the major definitions or all definitions there are?
She just talked about two definitions that are applicable to atheism. A perfectly fine answer to this thread. There is no generalization anywhere in there. No claim that they are essential or superior to other definitions. Just that they exist.
Can you drop it now? Seeing that you are so incredibly wrong?

Yes, she talked about two different definitions. THEN she stated those and OTHERS similar, which would be other definitions regarding spiritualism, were applicable to atheism.
THAT'S A GENERALIZATION. You have it right in the post you made proving she generalized.
Nice.

no
She stated that there are others that apply if they similar.
What the hell do you think generalization is?
