I know these kinds of posts can get very heated. Please be respectful of other people's beliefs.

I'm both Jewish and Christian. I've been Bar Mitzvahed and my mom is Jewish but I carry around the new testament and celebrate Christmas and Hannukah

Atheist and Agnostic should not be included on the list. They either don't believe, or they question the existent of a higher being. That doesn't sound like a religion to me.

 

As for me I'm a Catholic.

I'm Agnostic. Kotzenjunge, do you mean that you're agnostic? Because there really isn't a nothingist, and agnostic is pretty much no beliefs whatsoever?

Agnostic believes it has no beliefs. I loooooooves me some hair-splitting.

Wonder if there are any cute alter boys at her church?...

Atheist, borderline Satanist, (which isn't the worship of the christian devil, before anyone gets uppity.)

I am a 'learning-to-practice' W!ccan.

 

And no, I don't worship the Dev!l, before someone asks. I don't really believe in him... Or Hell, for that matter. :P

 

Edit: (Sighs at the censors attached to his server) Rgh.

Very Christian and very proud of it.

 

But like SP, I'd rather not shove it down your throat. If you're not already turned off, that will do the trick.

I really don't have a belief set.

 

I live a clean life and I'm good to people...I don't know if I believe in all that Godish stuff, I'd like to think all that stuff is real.

 

I guess I'm 51/49 on believing

Read the second line of the title. They stay.

Religion does not mean belief in GOD, it means belief.

 

Christian, non evangelist.

Agnostic believes it has no beliefs. I loooooooves me some hair-splitting.

An agnostic is someone who is unsure of the existence of God, but doesn't have a concrete belief one way or the other. The belief in nothing that you're talking about is nihilism, and it's honestly one of the more idiotic philiosophies I've ever seen. One of their beliefs is that nothing can be known or communicated, which makes conversations like this incredibly pointless.

No, not nihilism. I know what that is. If I were a nihilist, I would have said so. The idea that there is no way anything can be convinced in any way is a belief, and, like I said, I have none of these beliefs, let alone a system. I just made up a name for it so I wouldn't have to explain it to people.

Somewhere between agnosticism, atheism and humanism. I guess I can't really vote then. Maybe a touch of voodoo for good luck.

Tom, that reminds me of The Big Lebowski, a personal favorite movie of mine.

Tell me were I criticized Atheist? All I said was I don't consider not believing in anything to be a religion.

I guess if I have to choose, agnostic. Maybe I'll be like Carlin and worship the sun and pray to Joe Pesci.

I voted agnostic, though I do remember being fascinated with Taoism when I was studying it awhile back.

Hell, I'm atheist and I wouldn't call it a religion, because, well, it's quite the opposite. It still belongs on the ballot though, or else I'll sue.

You know, in this day and age, you'd think more people would be into bizarre religions like Voodoo and such. I'd figure people would get tired of mourning their faith, and conforming to sterile dogma. If I'd ever leave the gray area of atheism, it would definitely be for the colorful and interesting world of the Druid, or something similar at least.
