I think that's well-spotted. There is a religiosity to my worldview, or what I'd call an existential depth, I hope, where "existential" is an updated word for "spiritual" or "mystical."

I present my existential/spiritual views in lots of articles. I collect them in lists pinned to the top of my homepage. I also collect my articles in paperback anthologies on Amazon, which you can find on my blog, linked below (when viewing it on a desktop computer), or by searching Amazon for my name or one of the titles, such as Cosmic Divinity and Religious Blasphemies. Notice that that title aligns with what you're saying. The link to my blog below also lists all my Medium articles on one handy page.

If you're looking for more articles like this one, they're probably found mostly in the lists "Secrets of Philosophy," with supporting ones in "History," and "Morality." There are also numerous articles on religion and "The Absurdity of Godlessness," in which I chastise exoteric theists and secularists for missing the existential picture.

I've listed some relevant articles below too.
