The Almaybe

"Saying that God does not exist is not so different from saying that we cannot comprehend God’s existence. In both cases, the material world may be characterized by limited understanding and limitless wonder. That is the charity so seldom extended to atheists in America: the notion that they, too, may be awed by and struggling to make sense of the human and the cosmic. 'A godless world is as mysterious as one suffused with divinity, and the difference between the two may be less than you think,' Gray writes."
