Another forum I frequent occasionally has atheistic responses to spiritually-oriented posts every now and then. Some will say that only science can explain existence and if something cannot be scientifically tested/proven it does not exist. Some just do not have belief in a god due to lack of any evidence and believe this world to be all that is, eternal souls and higher dimensions and whatnot are all hogwash of the New Age variety. Most atheists however, their beef is with organized religion and their various institutions and dogmas. Their usual viewpoint though, is that this "God" is something separate from themselves, intangible, impossible to perceive, and with no way to form a personal connection with nor to directly experience it... heh. They would be surprised.
I personally still view the atheistic individual to be an aspect of the Creator, showing that there are still plenty who are not ready to awaken as well as the "other side" of things. I used to be a pretty hardcore atheist in my younger years but that has very obviously changed. I'm glad that I underwent that stage as I have something to contrast my current life to. Discovering that not only is there an One Infinite Creator, but that we in fact are ALL avatars of the One Infinite Creator, is truly an empowering, beautiful realization to have.
