Christian

Hard Agnostic (or Strong Atheist if I feel cynical at the moment).

Diest, but I suppose Pagan will do.

Try Catheist!

I'm Katholik, which means that I don't believe everything they say,but it's the closet to the truth.

Yep, ol' father tim is married. Used to be episcopalian. Thank God I don't have to worry about him when it comes to for confession, other than what he might think I've done :D .

These new emoticons are sweet.

What's the difference between "Hard Agnostic" and "(any) Atheist"?

It's been discussed here before... people who describe themselves as Agnostics but say that they will believe there is no God/gods until proven, or people calling themselves Agnostics but say that they don't know or care whether there is a God/gods or not... total switch of definitions.

Like... I am a neo-Arianite... the one vote so far for "Christian - Other". But I could say that if Elijah and Enoch showed up and convinced me that Y'shua was a fraud, I might very well convert to Judaism... or if someone working on a flat tax plan accidentally PROVED that there is no God, I would convert to Atheism. That doesn't make me an Agnostic now, that only means I am open to contrary proofs.

A - Theism = having no belief in God/gods

Athe - Ism = having believe in non-existance of any God/gods

If I pay lip service to the Presbyterian Church, then, that'd make me

Presbagneist? Sounds... odd.

I'm Taoist-Tibetan Buddhist, Mahayana.

Most interesting! Where ya from?

I'm betting Cleveland :p

i'm discordian.

i'm discordian.

Are you? Or are you just saying that to confuse things?

I'm Christian.

If you want to get specific, I'm Presbyterian.

Are you? Or are you just saying that to confuse things?

I'm an Episkopos. Remember, King Kong Died for Your Sins. (*Guesses that last comment will confuse things a lot.*)

Are you? Or are you just saying that to confuse things?

while i hardly miss a chance to cause some constructive order or disorder, i'm actually not trying to this time. i actually am discordian (not exactly the same variety as in the Principia Discordia but very similar)

Atheist was the closest match but since I know there are some supernatural phenomen out there I can't say I'm atheist. There are more or less wrong with each religion listed here, even on hinduism and buddhism. (one very good "religion" was not in the list and it is satanism!) :mad:

Dunno where you got that from, seems pretty clear to me:

ag·nos·tic Audio pronunciation of "agnostic" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (g-nstk)
n.

1.
1. One who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God.
2. One who is skeptical about the existence of God but does not profess true atheism.
2. One who is doubtful or noncommittal about something.


Not caring if God exists or not would be plain old apathy.

Wikipedia-
"strong agnosticism (aka hard agnosticism, closed agnosticism, strict agnosticism)—the view that the question of the existence of deities is unknowable by nature or that human beings are ill-equipped to judge the evidence "
"(2) Strong atheism aka positive atheism is the standpoint that there is reason to believe that God doesn't exist/there are no gods. This may include the view that the existence of God or gods is even logically impossible. Such a position usually commits one to having, or at least allowing for, positive assertions about and explanations of the natural world which do not require a deity. "

Deist, leaning agnostic

well i was jewish, now i guess i'm sorta christian, in a self worshipping sorta way.

I put down athiest, but I'm much more of an agnostic.
If I was religious I'd be jewish though.

I'm a, dan dan dan!

A CATHOLIC!

OMG I M A CATHOLIC!!! LOLZ!!!111!!

Seriously, ya I'm a Ca-tho-lic. Eh, it has a great afterlife plan, sin all your life and confess on your deathbed.

Pagan studying Buddhism.

Atheist

I'm Christian, not Catholic or Protistant, just Christian, though not very religous.

I'm a muslim, eventhough I haven't formally converted yet.

Although I was raised as a Christian, it never did quite set in. So I made up my own belief structure. The first rule of which states that no rule is without exception. Then I sort of got lazy and never got around to make any other rules. Oh there up there. But I haven’t written any of them down yet. But of all other religions out there I would say that it’s somewhere between Buddhism and Satanism.

Actually... John Holmes died for my sins...

Atheist, with Hindu tendances.

i accept there is the possibility that the easter bunny is real, but i very much doubt it brings anyone candy. i think it makes more sense to live my life as if the easter bunny didn't exist because even if it did in some form, it would have very lttle impact on my real situation.

how does one formally convert to islam?

i thought all you had to do was state publically that there is no god but allah, and mohamed is his prophet.

I am a christian, but i follow the last testament of Christ.

the morman one?


btw I'm Catholic (uber Catholic)

that was what i was wondering. mormons are weird about that. sometimes they are all open about their differences from mainline christianity and sometimes they seem to want to be coy about it.

Agnostic/Deist. There should never be belief in something. There can only be observation.

why the hell shouldn't there be belief in something?

it shows you how to live, gives you courage when your scared and strenght when your weak

I don't believe in God as a person but as a human method of personifiying the achievement of goals. God is not he. God is not she. God is victory.

actually i am not mormon. Although some people view it as fact, and other fake, there is a inscription that is posswibly the last testament of christ which says that there is no need for organized religion because
Jesus Christ lives within all of us and that if we are good people and believe in him we will be saved.

My dad is Hindu, mom Catholic.

Me confused.. But I put down hindu as I feel it offers more truth than anything else.

I am a devout, super religious polytheistic pagan heathen infidel.

the universe is all - we have always been here, we always will be here...not as conscious beings but the energy which makes up our bodies can't be destroyed

i kinda like that idea...there's a sense of permanence in it :)

That bears very close resemblances to some budhist teachings as well as hinduism.

I'm a Baha'i!

agnostic

i'm discordian.

Well met, fellow traveller on the path of Discord.

Pope Vassilly Deferns the first, last and always.

I'm Roman Catholic, as if ya couldn't tell!

Science is the only religion.

Hi everyone,

I'm "Christian-Protestant" (Lutheran), but with strong sympathies to the Catholic church.

I'm Methodist.

Great Idiea to the one who came up with this post, though the results frighten me. Pegans have nearly gotten the better of Catholics, Atheists are pounding all the Christian forms and Satanism seems like a good choice? ACK!

"Is god an atheist? If not, who created him? And if so, why can I not agree with him in unbelief?"
- John Nicholson

here is what i personaly believe:

there may very well be and probably are all sorts of things

what i don't believe is that anyone who imposes names and
deffinicians on them has the slightest idea what they are
talking about

i could elaborate further but have previously done so
i feel no need at the moment to repeat doing so

Christian!
