I seem to recall reading that Pullman was more of the Richard Dawkins camp: an out-and-out atheist. But one shouldn't confuse that position with being amoral; his morality is just grounded in philosophical rather than spiritual terms.

I have respect for that. Atheism shows decisiveness; agnosticism smacks of hedging one's bets.
