It is kind of hard if you were in that mind-set that God powers everything you see and now you practically have to learn to think again from the start and deal with life in this "new" way. And you're constantly reminded of it since society was built to exploit this totalitarian mind-set with: one god, one factory owner, one king, one pope, one father-leader in the family at home... Unless they're family then they can sometimes together rule. Have you also noticed how every pantheon of gods is shamelessly nepotistic?
What you could believe is in potential of human beings. Notion that we only have each-other to count on for every danger and threat that awaits us is a powerful one and that we should do more to better our lives and lives of others. Right now one of the more prominent news is death of many hundreds emigrants from Africa on the sea that are running away into EU. Well they wouldn't be running away if the rest of the world decided to use Africa as a garbage dump. So yeah it would be really nice if more people would be aware of the notion mentioned above and in human potential. I mean humans have put a space craft into Saturn's orbit, surely they could make this planet into a much better place.
