Blunder? I don't think so. I follow Eleven's point. If God created nature, it seems very, er, natural to me to feel God's presence in the wonders of nature. My question is whether, if one feels spiritual amongst the wonders of nature but does not come to that with any belief that nature was created by God, does that spiritual feeling imply a belief in God as she knows Him/Her/It. In other words, if God created nature, then one can experience God in one's awe of nature. If one experiences awe and wonder and spirituality in nature, does that back door one into an presumed God-belief in whoever or whatever created nature? Something or somebody obviously created nature, which is wonderous and awesome and spiritual to experience. Is acknowledging that tantamount to recognizing God? Does that make any sense?
