Working at a defense research lab, I went from a papered to a paperless office as I moved to projects with higher levels of national security classification. At the highest security levels, printing something involves writing a paper log entry, attaching cover and back sheets, entering the document into accountability and storing it in a safe. I used to like the mulling-over of data images that paper seemed to make more comfortable but I got over it. We all did. Even today I can see the degree of paperless-ness go up as I go from the areas of the building doing unclassified work to the locked vaults where we keep the dead aliens.

I'm a Baptist turned Atheist so I guess we have the same qualifications. Reading Dawkins' The God Delusion was like coming out of the closet for me. We need more leaders willing to take on religion, proudly and confidently pointing out the BS, with the same pride and confidence that preachers/politicians try to feed us the BS.
