One can "PRAY", but not necessarily to a god and certainly not necessarily to the god of any man who wears some sort of robe.
One can go to "CHURCH", but not necessarily to a church built for a god nor a church where one is obliged to listen to a man wearing some sort of robe.
One can "SIN" no more after gaining enlightening knowledge of what is right and wrong, and not necessarily out of fear of a fearsome place told of by a man wearing some sort of robe.
One can be "BLESSED" by the fruit of real personal achievement and not necessarily by edict, gesture, nor absolution "given" by a man wearing some sort of robe.
One can have "HOPE", so long as said hope is "substantiated" by some form of aspiration and a concrete plan to achieve it, and not by some empty words delivered from a pulpit by a man wearing some sort of robe.
