Is there nicer way of saying; I don't believe in a set religion. Sure I believe in a higher being, I just don't believe all the BS explanations Christians have to offer?

Who says it's ugly? It's just a word.

Why do you think it's an ugly word?
And if you believe in a higher being,you're not an atheist

It's a beautiful word, it means not theistic but you aren't atheist if you believe in a higher being.

You would be an agnostic.

I only know this:
Jesus Christ taught us to love our neighbors. Can anyone argue that the world would not be a better place if we all followed this greatest commandment? I am a Catholic, which means I am a Christian above all else. I hope everyone can follow this teaching of Jesus, whether you are Christian or not.
If you would like to know more about my faith, I suggest that you go to Catholic Answers at http://www.catholic.com and then look at the left sidebar: You will see many subjects. You can click on one and see tracts that will answer your questions. Also, the search engine searches 20 years worth of articles from "This Rock" magazine. There are a lot of great articles there too
The"official" Catechism Of The Catholic Church is online at: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/entiretoc1.htm
This is a difficult document to read. (The book is about three inches thick!) But, there is a wealth of information there too if you take the time to learn how to navigate it.
May the Lord our God bless you and keep you, and cause His Face to shine upon you.

I don't mind the term "atheist," personally.

You're not an atheist. You're a deist.
