Actually "spiritual but nor religious" is an increasingly popular affiliation category that is showing up on more surveys and is widely popular among young people in particular. What they mean is: "I am not an atheist or total skeptic, but I don't follow any particular dogma."

Yep. I wish there was a better term for this position... Ietsism comes close but as an English speaker I find it a bit awkward: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ietsism

Yes, there are. Most people don’t mind cliches; “thought leaders” and people in subcultural scenes are the ones who do. (I expect teen Venkat was the latter.)

They tend to at least be aware of a history of an idea as a cliche though, and update or qualify usage a bit (“I know it’s a cliche to say this...”). I find unaware usages interesting. Generally people who have grown up somewhat intellectually isolated.
