4:1 We Are All Godless
Since there are no gods we are all technically godless. Godlessness is not something that one should be afraid of embracing. All the beauty in the world, all of the moral people, and all that brings you joy in life exists despite the lack of gods. This awe inspiring universe is exactly the type of universe one would expect to see if there were no gods. Everything in it is governed by natural forces meaning there is no god intentionally causing floods and setting off earthquakes when he or she feels like it. Living in a godless universe is what allows us to make predictions about nature and use our knowledge of its functionality and limitations to protect and improve the lives of future generations. Godlessness is the freedom to make positive changes in the world.
We Are All Godless
Meaning And Purpose
Life itself has no purpose, nor should it. Life is a window of time and an opportunity for us to do meaningful things and find a purpose. It is up to ourselves to find our own purpose and meaning in life, such things are not predetermined by someone or something else. As long as there are problems to be solved, hunger to lessen, illness to cure, pain to minimize, or oppression to resist there is meaning in life. As long as there are goals to reach, knowledge to gain, beauty to create and appreciate, places to explore, love or dreams to seek after there is meaning in life. If you want meaning in your life then do something meaningful.
Godless Spirituality
Spirituality is the sense of feeling connected to everything around us and finding inner peace. Some of the most enlightened and spiritual figures such as Buddha and the Dalai Lama embrace their godlessness. Buddhists develop inner peace, kindness, and wisdom through daily practice and then share their experience with others. They try to not harm others and to live peacefully and gently, working towards the ultimate goal of pure and lasting happiness for all living beings.
 

"GOD" As A Term
In a poetic non literal use of the word "god" some philosophers and scientists like Albert Einstein have used it to describe a oneness of the universe. That oneness or "god" is however not a conscious being but rather a math equation or the smallest building block that all of existence is made out of. Such scientists do not actually believe in a literal god and in a 1954 letter Einstein actually called the belief in a literal god a "childish superstition."
Why Some Brilliant People Believe In Gods
Isaac Newton Why is it that some of the greatest intellects believe in a god if gods don't really exist? Let's take Isaac Newton for example. He is well known for confessing a belief in a god but if you take a closer look at his writings you will notice that he never invokes the existence of a god when talking about subjects he was knowledgeable about. He only invoked a god's existence when faced with something he could not explain and was not educated in. More specifically, Newton had no clue how planets could keep in orbit through natural means so he assumed the only possible explanation was that a god was keeping their orbit stable.

A century later Pierre-Simon de Laplace, a French astronomer and mathematician, solved Newton's dilemma of stable orbits proving that there was no need to invoke a god at all. As it turns out scientists like Isaac Newton only believe in a god because of the knowledge they lack, despite how knowledgeable they are in their particular field of expertise.
