Her passions are more spiritual??

I sat with some fellow students for lunch yesterday and one of them asked me what my passions are. I told them and then asked what their's were. They told me and added onto the end of their description, "They're (her passions) almost the same as yours, just more spiritual." I wanted to be like W-T-F, but I go to a small Christian school in the Midwest; so there's no way I would have responded with that. I just kinda smiled and we went on to another topic of conversation. The question I pose to you is exactly that W-T-F. What do you think about that? Can one person's passions be more spiritual than another's? Or was this person's narrow minded-ness showing through? You decide and leave me a comment or two.
