These folks would do well to read some marketing and communications theory, including George Lakoff's Don't Think of an Elephant book.
Something more like "Curiosity, it's what makes us want to be better." would communicate the same message, without the defensiveness and negativity and antagonism against "god". Define yourself by what you are, rather than what you are not so that people will feel inspired to follow you...
