Protestant Christian here. I affiliate most with Assemblies of God and Baptist, but I consider my philosophies specifically mine. I don't accept things without being sure they make sense to me personally, and I'm comfortable disagreeing with certain beliefs those groups have. I think that's a healthy attitude.

Honestly, I don't know what to believe in. I can't find the flaws every where. I would like to believe that there might be some magical man in the sky, it just ins't supported by evidence. Neither is any the science theories really.
So, I guess you could say that I am an Athiest. It is not that I don't believe in him, it is just that I need proof. I can't touch him, smell him, hear him, taste him, see him, or anything else. So, yeah. |
No, I'm not an atheist. I believe in God, and that Jesus died on the cross for us.

I am an atheist. I personally find religion absurd, irrational and obsolete. Its something about a being about an all-powerful being that sees all, created all and has power over all that doesn't make sense to me. I also find religion to hypocritical, vile and very logically flawed. Im sorry to offend anyone, its just my opinion.

I am a semi-igtheistic, agnostic, panprotoexperientialistic, henotheistic, henophysitistic, pantheistic, skeptically holistic protestant Lutheran, if it means anything to you. ;3

Agnosticism (not necessarily religious, by the way) is actually the belief that certain questions cannot be answered with certainty. I'm a religiously agnostic theist. Id est, I am agnostic and religious at the same time. Not impossible. D: She is a nontheist. |

I don't know.
It's better to believe than to not believe, this is because the believer gets all in the end if God exists, but if you don't really care and God ends up not existing, you loose nothing. |

-__-"" Yes, we've already figured that out. And I've been thinking about that. And it still holds a relevant point. But I won't get into that now.
Goat, when I looked up "semi-igtheistic" on Google, this topic was the top result. =P Why do people think that others generally adopt religion on the basis of our parents? Many faithful people I know come from atheistic families, or turned from it early on because they "realized it was stupid", and then returned. It's just too far against the odds for everything to be orderless. I've seen far too many... uncanny things happen to too many people too many times to think existence is entirely unstructured and without an overseer. |

I'm a firm Muslim, and nothing can shake my faith. I was a Muslim since birth, and I will always be one, no matter what. There is no faith alternative to Islam that I believe is 100% true.

oooh no. I believe in the Holy Spirit, Jesus, and God.
Really, I don't really think it's very good to be atheist. When you are in grave danger, who can you talk to that will solve your roblems? Anyway, don't think I hate atheists - I don't. I'm Christian, so being racist, antisemitic or whatever, is totally wrong. Just an opinion. I believe that everyone one is equal whether they believe in God or not. - In the name of the Father, in the name of the Son, and in the Holy Spirit, Amen! :< - |
I'm a Protestant but I have friends from all walks of religion. I believe in God and that we'll Him when we die.
|
Yes, but I am not against any one who believes in any sort of god or higher power or some sort. Believe whatever you feel is right.
|
Yes. But it isn't that I don't believe in god it is just that I need proof that he exists. I can't smell him, can I? No? Well, how do I know he exists? I can smell the person next to me, I can see them, I can hear them, I could feel them, and heck, I could even taste them if I really wanted to do. But can I do anything like that to this God?

I'm not sure what I am aside from a dedicated Lightningist. I was raised Catholic but the religion has never struck a chord with me and I really don't believe in it. I suppose if I had to categorize my beliefs, I'd be an atheist but apathy is probably a better fit.
There are so many religions and picking the right one just kind of seems hit-and-miss to me. The idea that I could dedicate my life to following some sort of faith only for it to be the "wrong" one doesn't really appeal to me so I'd rather just follow none of it and do my own thing instead of fretting over religion. If I die and it turns out one religion was right, oops. I'll worry about that then. Furthermore, I don't mind if any of my friends are overly religious or not, so long as they don't force their beliefs or lack thereof on me. So for me, it's more: I can't prove that a God exists, nor can I prove a God doesn't exist, so I'm just gonna ignore the whole thing because I don't really care. |
