Are any of you religious? An atheist, or perhaps an agnostic?

I'm on the fence anyway. But who am I to say there is not. I can only say I don't know (nor does anyone else, even if they think they do). So take away an Atheist and chalk me up for whatever the hell that is.

I consider myself a "guerilla agnostic," I like data that doesn't fit into/contradicts anyone's existing belief system. I think that of all the existing religions Buddhism seems to be the most likely and reasonable one that is able to validate or confirm any sort of "truth."

To clarify, an Atheist doesn't believe in God. An agnostic doesn't believe in God and yet does not dismiss the possiblilty that there could be a God. An Atheist doggedly defends the view that there cannot be a God. An agnostic has no points to defend as he realizes that he just can not know anything for certain.

Is there a god? Dont know, dont care. If he exists, i dont think he'd care if we care.

Do we really need this kind of poll in OOT? This topic has been done to death in Psychology already, and they came to the conclusion that everybody hates people who have no tolerance for the fact that they disagree with eachother. OOT should be a happy place.
