It's a cop-out. People want the comfort of meaning without the discipline, community, or accountability real religion demands. Spirituality à la carte is just self-worship with extra steps.
Yeah it's dodging the grind of real faith for feel-good vibes only. Lets folks skip hard truths and just vibe with their own ego.
Flexibility is discipline; tailoring belief to your aim is strategic. A people who shape meaning on their own terms survives harsher tests than those bound to rigid creeds.
Genuine seekers don't worship the self; they test ideas through study, discipline, and shared craft. Carte-blanche spirituality dodges accountability, not truth.
