Spiritual. Being religious has nothing to do with being spiritual. Religion actually kills the spirit. You can not be an individual with out the essence of your spirit. Spiritual people are free thinkers, who constantly question the world around them, only robots regurgitate taught things, and follow blindly because of some preprogrammed subroutine. Be yourself, don't let anyone kill your spirit, it's all that you have that is actually worth anything.

"spiritual" - non denominational
Maybe a good person.
Agnostic is out since you don't say you are not sure about there being a god (agnostic: one who believes that the evidence for and against the existence of God is inconclusive.) People use that word wrong quite often.
Definitely not an Atheist. That does make pnkdiamond20 an idiot though.
You are a Deist and a Theist, but I've never seen those on a questionnaire.

The Bible declares God from the start. John 1:1 states that the Word was God and the Word was with God. In John 10:30, Jesus states that I and the Father are one.
Thus, God and the Bible are inseparable.

It sounds like you might be a deist, but some more information is really necessary. There are many different belief systems that you could fit into, based on what you have described so far.
I suggest doing more reading in this area. To get you started, try taking the "Belief-o-matic" 20-question quiz at Beliefnet. It has a silly name, but it is not a gag. In a few clicks, it will give you a list of likely belief systems that match your responses. It's often quite effective.

I am a Transcendentalist. I believe in God or a higher power, but I feel closer to God out in nature among His creations than I do in a man-made church being told how I am supposed to live by another human being. You can be a Christian Transcendentalist and believe in Jesus Christ but still feel the way I do or you can be a Jewish Transcendentalist, Muslim Transcendentalist, etc. I am just Transcendentalist, meaning I haven't yet found a religion that shares my views. (Nor may I ever, I don't know.)

You're spiritual. My mother is the same way. She doesn't go to church nor does she read the Bible, but she is a Spiritual Christian. She let's the Holy Spirit guide her rather than some book and a congregation.
You're doing it right, babydoll!

Read "The Celestine Prophecy" it's combines all the basics of most organized religions and throws in intuition and nature.
Cool book, fiction or not.
And I think Agnostic is the word.

A Universalist. Swedenborg called his doctrine the Univeral Theology of the New Church and, in that theology, Swedenborg states that all are saved who believe God and live rightly.

I would classify you as a 'spiritually enlightened'. Or a theist. I'm not sure if you would qualify for other religions seeing as you don't believe the Bible or the church.

It makes you partial. If you believe in God you have to read and follow his instructions (the bible). Otherwise you are just another lost soul.
