you're AGNOSTIC, just like me.
You believe in the existence of god but not enough to devote yourself to any particular religion.

I fully agree with you. Religion and Rituals are man made. Idol worship is for low level and uneducated simple people who cannot understand the abstract thing called god.
If one believes in God, the Almighty or the Divine Power, and can do simple 'dhyan' (meditation), after having been initiated by a qualified master one can experience and enjoy peace and that is what needed in the present chaotic and turbulant world.

I'm just like you! I'm a 100% believer of God but I don't need to follow any religion in order to believe Him.

I am the same way...all religions have several aspects, and it is difficult to agree with all aspects of any particular religion. How can you take something so complex, to believe, and define it so much? It does not feel right.

All religions are man -made .God never made any eligions.Neither did god really ask any one to create any religion.The god who knew to create even dust and dirty creatures like men would certainly have created religion if he wanted to .
A good human being does not need any religons at all. god creed man without even a name .but man has chosen a name for himself . god id not want any name for any man as HE was not for any sort of discrimination among his creation.
God never creatd any language .For if he has created any language , he would have created one language for all . Man continujes to commit sins as he continues tolie in the name of god and cheat HIS creations.

Don't confuse 'organized religion' or 'dogma' practiced by organized religion (any specific church) with faith and belief in God.
Belief in God does NOT require you to belong to any church or organization.
Your faith and belief in God is very personal; it does not require bending your thoughts to the 'practices and quirks' of 'organized dogma' which appears to be practiced to collect money rather than to save souls.

You don't have to belong to an "established religion" to believe in God.

your thinking is excellent... you are thinking in the way people will start thinking in the time to come...
with all the respects to all the religions on this planet... it is true that religions were discovered by our ancestors for preaching culture to the ancient human race and to make them civilised...
i hope my answer would not hurt sentiments of anybody...
kindly take it positively...

I think that it's better to have a relationship with God on a personal level.....but be careful you don't manipulate what you "think" God tells you to suit a whim or desire that you want to justify
