My religion? My religion is life. I live it and I do what I can to make myself and those around me, human or otherwise, feel safe, loved and accepted. I don't follow the word of anything but positive morality. All religions are accepted and heeded by me, since they do all have some things to teach us, as do all forms of information on Earth. Every story has a lesson, and in all this infinity and paradox, anything could be real if you believe strongly enough.

I consider myself agnostic but feel there's a deeper explanation.

Wow. Well, I'm not even sure how I could possibly fit that into a category (though I'm sure someone could).
I really need to re-RE-read the rules...

Branch Davidian!

But seriously, I guess I'd call myself agnostic but that's because I don't know what the hell is going on regarding life, existence, etc. and I don't think I'll ever find a satisfactory answer.

What is your religion?
« Reply #18 on: July 18, 2015, 09:09:53 PM »
Welp I'm nothing I suppose or I guess agnostic?? I really can just choose I don't know if there's a God or not. So meh, just can't tell my grandpa since he's really religious and would kill me if I even said 'oh my god' :/
And besides my whole life my family, mostly my mother has been pushing the religious thing towards me, not like it's bad but how she had grown up and decided to raise me. It also just feels odd believing or worshiping something that might not even be real :S

Atheist. Why? Lack of impirical data. Also, watch some Darkmatter 2525 videos on youtube. I  rely on the morals I was taught as a child, and the the ethics my society considers "correct." I don't feel I need religion to determine right from wrong, or be decent to other people.

TBCH I feel someone who does the right thing because its the right thing to do, is a MUCH better person than someone who does the right thing because god told them to.

you are getting the wrong idea personally i think that religion was made a long time ago as a early attempt to explain whir we came from
and i agree with angder

I think a lot of Millenials feel the same way. Unfortunately, I grew up in Texas, which is currently attempting to remove Thomas Jefferson from their history text books because he was a Deist. Personally, I think it's fine for people to have religious beliefs, but there's plenty of harmful behaviors encouraged by certain groups.

i lie in the UK so i don't know much about america so if you start to go on about things in your curriculum when it is to do with america the odds are i wont know much about it
i also agree that it is fine for people to have religions
i also agree that people use religion to harmful things one example that everyone will know is IS in Syria
but i have no problem with religion

I'm Atheist Agnostic.

Basically saying, at the current moment, one cannot prove nor disprove god, so in that regard you are agnostic. But it's also good to make a choice about what you believe, do you only believe in things that have evidence for them, or do you only believe in things that do not have evidence against them? I take the former approach, and thus in that regard I'm atheist.

So agnostic atheist.

I would say I'm an Atheist, pretty much by Anoni's definition, however I simply have no need for a belief in any deity to explain my existence or give it purpose.
Interestingly enough though, I'm somewhat spiritual in this regard.

Atheist. But I'm not sure it can be classified as a religion.

Atheism is not a religion.
its an absence of religious belief where Theism is the religious belief of or in a deity.
