Why is belief in a higher power required?
RE: Why is belief in a higher power required?
I believe there is probably some kind of higher power out there, but I also don't feel the need(even if I knew this higher power) to put it it on some kind of pedestal.

For one this "higher power" had to have come into shape in some manner, maybe the same way we did, so it is just another being, maybe more advanced than us, not really that difficult. I don't feel the need to call anything I could describe as a higher power a God. Whatever this "higher power" is, I don't think it has much interest in us, if its ever even heard of us in the first place. In the meantime it's kind of pointless to think about it.
