*waves* Another checking in! Though I have to admit to a bit of what Cmdr. Lore spoke of. I choked on trying to believe in God while I was in the Borg and was so relieved to be able to let the mask drop and stop pretending.
How many left the organization have become Atheist?

It took a while, but I am well on my way. Actually, I think that today it is official. Yep. I realized my actual belief is that we are on our own. And thats fine, since I would be terrified of any God who thought all this up and was perfect and omnicent and all that. . .how scary would that be?

I call myself an agnostic. The deffintion I embrace is one who believes it is impossible to know whether there is a God. That is where I find myself.
I dont really believe in the bible or the bible God. But I dont have enough faith to believe in evolution.
So I am at the crossroad of no evolution, no biblical god.
The best I can come up with is that we are god, spirits having human experiences. And we god designed ourselves and this material world with our conciousness.
Its not proveable. But its not capable of being proved mathimatically impossible, like evolution is.
I am thinking evolution is the atheist choice of creation. I'm not an atheist so I dont know.
I've read Darwins origins of species, I've read sagans Dragons of Eden, And Ive read the bible cover to cover, And I dont believe any of it.
My money is on the idea that there is a connection between this exhistence and another dimension and the answer and explanation of our exhistence lies in understanding that connection.

I believe in God and a higher being, just don't have the definition as in the past. Not close to being an atheist.

Thus Spartan Meritocracy does not begin with atheism. However, as we have seen above, attempts to have a Spartan Meritocratic worldview that incorporates God have failed. Therefore lacking any evidence for the existence of God, the worldview of Spartan meritocracy tells us that we cannot have a belief in God either as an assumption or as an explanation of the world. This, then, is atheism. [4]
NVR, the above describes where I am in my journey. Wow I'm becomming an atheist -
