Not in an empirical sense. But I believe that spirituality and ethics are linked to each other. But my definition of spirituality is rather wide. People who live by their virtues usually believe in something. What they call it is a different matter.

Ths question is not to decide wether Catholic church is better than Lutheran or not, the question is: given your wide definition of spirituality, if in your opinion the dogmas that make Catholic and Lutheran churches different are really relevant or not?
