saying no may result in purging
I don't see why not. Faith in a false corpse-god is still faith.

It means that there is no higher power dictating what I can or will be and do, my purpose and morality are mine to decide.

It means that the universe is inherently chaotic, that random tragedy is just that but also that everything is amazing because there is no omnipotent omniscient puppetmaster to take credit for it or for all of the incredible things we've done and will do.
I am a trans-humanist, though not one of the ones who wants to create a machine messiah and that doesn't require faith regardless, rather it takes extrapolation and/or directed effort.
Getting slightly off-topic, the reason I wouldn't want to create a machine messiah is that I don't believe we'd need a singular regulating intelligence when we'd reach the point where that becomes feasible. It also offends my sensibilities to want to put the entire human race under control of what would effectively be a dictator at a point when a true democracy should be possible.

Wheels are pretty sick too. They've revolutionized the world.
