16. I never had any sort of "need for spiritual aspect"

Never. It was more like an awareness/ a light bulb moment. It's been termed "self-transcendent."
Something Harris described in the first 10mins here:

It's called spiritual for a lack of a better term and has NOTHING to do with the traditional meaning of the word. It's simply internal, neural activity that awakens and transcends self and provokes a sense on oneness.

Yet, I do not go as far as thinking the universe is any sort of entity, so perhaps I'm not technically a "scientific pantheist." There is a DUer, GliderGuider, who does feel that way.

Most atheists are as totally dismissive of this as you, so I realize mine is a minority opinion. But look down thread and see that others here, per test results, fall into that category.
