Subject: RE: BS: The 10 Commandments for atheists
Gnu, I understood that. Scary.

I don't think not believing and deities means I have to be free from wonder or not be spiritual in other ways. I love this quote from Babylon 5 (one of the best science fiction shows EVER), and think it makes perfect sense, although open to interpretation (which is good):
"The molecules of your body are the same molecules that make this station and the nebula outside, that burn inside the stars themselves. We are star-stuff. We are the Universe, made manifest, trying to figure itself out. And, as we have both learned, sometimes the Universe needs a change of perspective."
--Ambassador Delenn, Babylon 5
