"God" is an identity enhancement; the hymn is but a tribute to the higher self. Many atheists don't go in for that "higher self" perspective, and something that comes across as "spiritual" is immediately rebuked. Spirituality can exist between atheists; I didn't mean to imply that it could not, but when two or more atheists are "grooving to the same waveform" it is almost as if a theism is being created.

What unites us seems to be dry practicalities; rational expression, critical thought. It seems almost anathema to the "frivolity" of musical creation.
