Lots of self-identified atheists are also very spiritual -- including myself.

An atheist is one who does not believe in god(s). Atheism says nothing about secularity or spirituality.
If you use some vague, nebulous and essentially meaningless definition of the word "spiritual," then, yes, I suppose an atheist could be called "spiritual." But it looks like a silly word game to me.

Coming from the very person who nitpicked the hell out of an innocent cartoon...
'Scuse me? Those were not minor flaws. The cartoonist was clearly cherry picking his facts to present a highly idealized picture of Norway, and he got them wrong. I object when a fundamentalist propagandist like Jack Chick does things like this. Why shouldn't I object when an atheist propagandist pulls the same kind of dumb stunt?
