I agree. But, I think, I can almost get where they're coming from and why some are more comfortable with considering such a possibility than a god. For some, God has a bad, religious stigma about it. So is it that this "life force"(excuse me if I'm calling it wrongly, I'm just trying to be more versatile here) is actually another name for a deistic god, or what?
Whenever I try and imagine what it is people mean by this I just think of some sort of a celestial object that is extremely powerful, or something like that .
P.S. I'm sure at least some of us here will attest to the fact that we've heard about some form or other of such belief in a "higher force". If not, though, let me bring you up to date. There are people who whenever you ask them about their religious views they just answer something like this: I believe there's something out there, greater than us...". Yeah, I know, confusing, right?
