Spock wasn't real, you know.
And I thought that the Vulcans did have a form of religion.
Uncharacteristically petty of you Eric. He clearly knows Spock isn't real and is merely expressing a sense of loss for something of import from his childhood.And I thought that the Vulcans did have a form of religion.
How do you feel?

This old Geocities page fills in some of the background (maybe; who can tell?) but it seems that Vulcan religion would be closer to something like Buddhism, which is non-theistic.
Maybe Spock wasn't real; the values that he represented were though, and still are. Look again at Nimoy's last tweet, and you can see that he agreed with that too.

If anybody needs to be revered it should be Gene Roddenbery as it was he who invented Spock and it was he who gave Spock his view of life and the universe. Nimoy was an actor, who would have been asked to interpret and express Roddenberry's ideas about what Spock represented.
Roddenberry didn't hold that opinion; he valued the contribution that Nimoy made in developing the character. Here's some indisputable primary evidence.http://missionlogpodcast.com/discovereddocuments/0...
