I state myself as an agnostic, as I have not found a faith that I believe in. Although, I am not too fond of organized religion. This is because of all the hatred, violence, destruction, etc.. it has caused over the years. I think that your religion should be about the individual, what your own morals are. You shouldn't need a book or a religious figure to tell you what to believe.

For the sake of not sounding too arrogant about my knowledge of the origins of life...I have to say that I'm agnostic and not atheist. Indicating to others that you're aetheist is basically the same as saying you know for a fact that a higher power did not create us; and no one can honestly say they know the truth about that issue.
Creationism to me sounds silly, but...it's very closed-minded to just reject the ideas that other people have.

I believe in god, or a god.
It comforts me to know, or at least to have the illusion of knowing, that there's something/someone out there that looks over me and is protecting me.

I believe Science over Fiction, though, I do believe that there may be some higher being out there.

Agghhhh, sorry but you bloody agnonstics get on my tits! Aeithiesm is not an alternative religion, it is COUNTER-religion!

It is based on FACT not SPECULATION. I couldn't care less what you believe in but it is nonsense. Jesus (Excuse the profoundity), I have more time for Catholics than I do for agnostics.

I myself do not follow or practice any religion. I would probably have to say that I am Atheist than Agnostic. Even though Christianity is the most popular religion where I live. In my eyes christians are the worst people of any religion. Throughout history they have always done stupid and immoral things in the name of God. Take the crusades for example. Travelling 1000s of miles to coerce people into following christianity. "Follow God or die!" That is just wrong. You got people like Pat Robertson being all high and mighty just because "God talks to him" and he's got his own show. I was watching the 700 Club one day and this lady called in about wanting to know if she would see her dog in Heaven? Pat just started gigglin and told her, "That dog ain't got no soul. There is no way you can see him in the Kingdom of Heaven." I don't like how every pastor and preacher is too well-fed and fat for his own good. I don't like how Christians think that they are above everyone else who is not a Christian. (I am talking about the most devout and faithful). I don't like how the answer to everything is "because that's how God made it" or "because that's how God planned it." Then you got your Muslims that misinterpret the Koran. Declaring holy wars in the name of God. These guys are REALLY dumb. "I don't like your God, Jihad on you!" I think that 95% of the wars ever waged in the history of civilized man were because of religion. The other 5% were because of money or profit. If I were to ever follow a religion, I would probably be Buddhist. Mainly because it is very similar to how a live my life. I respect all living things as they have fought for millions of years to earn the right to survive on this planet. However, I believe in logic. In my eyes there has to be a reason for everything: some sort of science as to why something exists or happens. I think we are a product of a living universe.
