I'm agnostic because I believe that there are an infinite amount of possibilities out there. While I respect other people's beliefs, and I respect the powerful influence that religion can have in people's lives, I also think that people who believe in specific religions are hiding from the truth.

Wow, that's a loaded question! I could write a discourse! But I'll try to keep it brief. I'm a Roman Catholic, although I am open to and more than tolerant of other religions, which is a lot more than most uber religious people can say, which I think is just hypocritical of them. Anyway, I don't believe that any one religion is the "true" religion, it just so happens that my father's family is Roman Catholic so that's the tradition I was raised with, although my mother is Vietnamese and a Buddhist. I think a person's faith is far more important than an organized religion or religious institution. And I hope that people at least understand that there is a difference between faith, or spirituality, and religion, or dogma.
Peace!

Agnostic atheist. I don't know the truth, but I believe that there are no gods. I think other religions benefit the culture of society, but when religion is taken too far it becomes a negative thing.

Im a Catholic. But I respect all religions and views. All other religions dont teach people bad things. Each person has a right to believe in whatever they want.

Religion is empty, an in vain attempt to work ones self to death in order to find God...
I am not an Athiest that cannot open his mind to the existance of an extremly intelligent and scientifical God..
I am not an Agnostic that is so open minded about everything that their brain has fallen out that don't know what to believe in and don't care...
I am a man that has been saved from sure hell by the grace of God through His Son, Jesus Christ...
I am forgiven, I am a child of God, all thanks to the Godman Jesus Christ...
May God show you the Truth, and God bless...

Whoever or whatever God is cannot and be contained in a church or a temple. Having seen what goes on up close, I have little use or respect for organized religion. I discern God in people, in nature, in the passing of time. So I suppose that makes my "religion"... the word means being tied ( back) to God.. a sort of pantheism. Whatever.

I'm an Agnostic....which means I'm not sure about God either way. I don't believe in religion at all but I do believe if you have a faith (Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, etc.) and it helps you live the best life you can and it works for you who am I to say differently?

I'm an agnostic pantheist. I believe that "God" is in everything and is everything but I realize (since I'm merely a puny human) that I could be mistaken.
Organized religions are overly confident of their monopoly on "Truth", just too self righeous and arrogant. I find it impossible to have faith in any human made God concepts ... such as ... a human blood sacrifice performed to appease a wrathful invisible super being,.

Atheist here... I was raised Lutheran in a church filled with Sunday Christians (those who live like Jesus only on Sundays and all the rest of the week are mean, gossipy, trite bitties who only care about what the world thinks about the few good deeds they manage to do).
I don't do religion... I may have been able to believe in God if it weren't for the bible, so filled with inconsistencies and stories of a God so deplorable, I'd never want to worship him, what with all the killing and such. I prefer my deities to not order those who DO believe in him to kill those who don't believe in him.
