Basically, does a person who thinks that there is most likely a God out there that is active in our day-to-day lives (but with some doubts) going to receive the same punishment that a pure non-believer would get?

Let's assume the balance of good and evil that weighs their souls are equal for the three folks described here. Three? Oh, yes. We should ask if the semi-believer will receive less punishment than a full believer as well.

All other things being equal, is the belief in God enough to warrant some sort of treatment in the afterlife (however you define it)?

That depends on which religion you ask, I suppose. Religion != spirituality or faith. Religion is just a structure through which faith functions. I don't think any religion has gotten it right.

I don't have an answer to your question, just more questions.

Still waiting for an answer to your queston in the Rand thread. I don't remember, either.
