Richard Dawkins, the most famous and outspoken atheist of our time, was asked if he ever had a religious experience. While Dawkins said, “I would not call it a ‘religious’ experience,” he did say that he has felt a profound sense of ‘gratitude’ for his own existence. He explained some of these experiences in a deeply moving tone of voice :

When I like on my back and look up at the Milky Way on a clear night and see the vast distances of space and reflect that these are also vast differences of time as well, when I look at the Grand Canyon and see the strata going down, down, down, through periods of time which the human mind can’t comprehend: I am overwhelmingly filled with a sense of “almost worship.’ it is not worshipping anything personal, any more than Einstein would have worshipped anything personal. It’s a feeling of sort of abstract ‘gratitude’ that I am alive to appreciate these wonders. When I look down a microscope, it’s the same feeling. I am grateful to be alive to appreciate these wonders. ~ Page 202
