Religious Naturalism
Without any supernatural being, nature itself is the object of religious attitudes.
What it claims
Religious naturalism accepts ontological naturalism: nature is all there is. Yet it does not give up religious attitudes such as awe, gratitude, devotion, and reverence. What it denies is a personal creator, miracles, and salvation after death, not the practical dimension of religious life.
