Why do I want to create something new? Because I'm an atheist. I don't believe in anything without proof through the percievable five senses humans possess. I want a sacred being I can believe in, one of higher power than humans. One that I can communicate with for guidance through life.
I want an afterlife. I know we are just a collection of neurons at the very core, but I want out of my human body. I want there to exist a reality in which the only limit is what I can imagine. I want a community of like minded individuals that share this ideal. I want a group I can belong to. Most importantly: I want this to be real.
