Sadly no. Step 2 is knowing the natural relation between you and god. The nature of that relationship will either be meaningful for you or not. You might value it in a way similar to your relationship with oxygen. You might value it in a way similar to your relationship with other people. Knowing the manner in which being-you relates to being-god will determine the meaning it has for you.
Okay so step 1 I must know that God exists step 2 I must know the manner in which God relates to me and that will determine the meaning it has for me. Correct?
