I see more labels here than I have ever come across in my life. I'm searching for answers..have called myself agnostic...but am I really when I believe in so many different things...the only thing I don't feel is right for me is organized religion. The catholics scared the catholic rright out of me. The Christians have shown so little mercy for someone searching I have no use for them. I believe in the possibility of God...God's...Godesses. I believe trying to be as good of a person as you can be is the plan. When you aren't try to make up for it as best you can.
I love the occult. Have/do practice witchcraft (white). I believe in celtic beginings. What am I???? Do I need to be lumped with others??? I never felt the need to belong...just to be accepted. Must we be an ism???

You have to be pretty strict in your beliefs for a label. Do you fit everyone of the do's/don'ts of your religion...and if you don't can you really use that label???

I went through what you are going through. During my time of searching I called myself spiritual. Nothing more nothing less. Spiritual encompasses many things. Until you find the religion or path that is right for you stick with that.
It many take a long time but you will be on the right path soon. It took me along time but I am finally on my true path in life. I have been lucky to be lead to my religion and it is one that I can say from the heart that I will be practicing until the day I die and beyond.

What is wrong w/ a label?
Imagine shopping w/out labels?
Groceries: Thousands of boxes w/ no clue whats in them. (watch out those w/ peanut allergies)
Clothes: Men wearing women's wear and so forth...
Cars: Gram-ma's buying Hummers.
You see my point?
There is nothing wrong with Labels for people either.
Don't be afraid to choose a label.
edit:
Does every Camry have the same package?
Two pair of pants may have the same label but they wear very differently.
A label is not predetermination. It is an affiliation, a starting point for conversation or debate.
I still say Labels are good.

You are hell bound that is what you are unless you accept believe and confess that Jesus is the Son of God the only God and that He died on the cross. I am sorry if that seems harsh but it is the truth. It sounds like to me you are really confused. This is what happens when we do not raise our children up with a godly conscience. I pray that you find Jesus and some Christians that show you love and help you to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

I don't carry a label around with me. The pressure is too much to "live your life this way or be damned."
I still believe in the One, True God. And also, that Jesus was one of His messengers, not his actual "Son" like the Christians believe.

nup, you can be whoever you want!
gee that was helpful.
keep searching. It can take time to find the true nature of god, but it is out there. Often not in the hearts of other humans.

it's the American way. Incidentally, 99% of Americans are very recent decendants of other continents/countries. This is what "culture" has brought this land's occupants to.

Just call yourself a fool. That fits pretty good.

It's easier than listing all the beliefs isn't it?
