To say I'm atheist is going a bit far; something must've started that big bang, or if you suppose that's a natural process like natural selection, something must have started that.
But to say I'm a believer in concrete terms is going a whole lot further.

GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

Gah!, 'cause I'm agnostic. Indecision is the way forward!

Yes but atheism, agnosticism and indecision is not a religion. You just don't have one.

I view athiesm as a religion, because it is the belief that no deity exists. Agnosticism is merely indecision on the subject, but with a fancy name.Originally Posted by King Henry V

Im Orthodox as the 99.9% of my country. But to tell the truth i have many objections against churches(any kind). I believe in god though. I cant see anything wrong cause even if Jesus never existed as God-man there is nothing bad in his practices and his words.
You know i ve been always wished for an andisputted archeological discovery of a book with the real words of jesus at the time cause im suspecting that many things had been paraphrasised or altered through the ages. For example the position of women in church or afterlife issues.

Well I'm a pagan cultist wannabe.
Studying atheism though.
A dieist, perhaps? I.e., the belief that a God created the universe, but does not affect the universe any longer, as if he were retired and disinterested.To say I'm atheist is going a bit far; something must've started that big bang, or if you suppose that's a natural process like natural selection, something must have started that.
It's too bad so many here are atheists.
As for me, I'm Catholic and proud of it!

I've never been one of them.
I'm a Roman Catholic,
And have been since before I was born,
And the one thing they say about Catholics is
They'll take you as soon as you're warm.
You don't have to be a six footer,
You don't have to have a great brain,
You don't have to have any clothes on,
You're a Catholic the moment Dad came
I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself after seeing the Catholics. I have to admit, though, that I used to be a Catholic, and was since before I was born...

Looks like I am the only Buddhist here
From this land I was made

I'm just anti whoever happens to be speaking.
Although Douglas Adams had quite a good view on this. Something along the lines of "if you can prove it like you'd have to prove something scientifically, it's valid. If not, there is no reason I should respect your views just because you think I should".
I made my own little religion. Basically i believe in a god (a magic Coyote who lives in the Sun) who controls our fates, but didn't create the Universe. The Big Bang created the Universe. It's basically Science mixed with my personal form of stupidity.
I follow my own Spiritualist religion
i'm an atheist.. i worship Atheos, the Brilliant Tuvan God of the Seltzers.
edit: wow, the children of Atheos are proud and numerous on these forums i see..

But I'm not that religious I see too many gaps so i sort of add Science into it. Works for me.

"I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

I that an "other", "atheist" or "Gah" vote?
We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
