Asking the question - "does God exist?" - is kind of pointless, because in reality, it has never been a question of whether some arguable historical sectarian definition of the word ‘God’ exists, but rather a question of whether life has any higher meaning that can be derived from a cosmic purpose.
So when the question is instead asked - "does life have any higher meaning that can be derived from a cosmic purpose?" - you find that the respondents are no longer divided along the lines of the secular and religious, because many secularists are also humanist idealists who believe that life does have some kind of higher meaning, even if they are unprepared to define the cosmic source of this meaning.
