What religion am I?

I was born to a mildly christian (church of england) family - I am christened but don’t attend church often (with guides for sister at christingle is about it). I don’t beleive in any god I am aware of however I try to be helpful and friendly to those I can be, stand by my mother (dad left after a divorce we see him 1 every 2 weeks), don’t steal, smoke, drink, do drugs, ect. I am highly scienitific and tend to beleive more in that that can be proven than is believed to have happened. Though I don’t pray or follow any religion strictly I do often listen to songs and hymns with strongly religious background, I like the moral stories behind many of the song and books (fiction) I listen to and read but I don’t know what religion that may all count as.

Sorry if this is a slightly akward question, I don’t want converting as I’m happy as I am, just curious as to what I count as. I have also beind wondering for a while what religous groups / people may think of my choice of life style which though not religos has picked up bits of the most common religions I am exposed to.

Answer #1

catholic maybe???

Answer #2

I’m the same with many things that you said and I consider myself atheist because I don’t believe in God/gods.

Answer #3

ehhh im not sure but I’d say agnostic. thats what I ammm

Answer #4

you’re an atheist. christianity aint really a religion. religion says that you do something for someone greater than yourself for a reward. christianity says that god does something for us, and he wants us to accept him into our life to improve it and make it better.

so, he did something for us so he could do something even more for us. all we have to do is accept him.

and you act like you aren’t aware of this, and since you don’t believe in god.. you’re an atheist.

Answer #5

I think your considered agnostic. one whom has no religion but has beliefs (that do not fit under another religion.)

Answer #6

Simply put, if you believe in some sort of “higher power” but you don’t know what it is, you are Agnostic. If you don’t believe in any sort of god then you are Atheist. I, personally, am very athiest.

Answer #7

That is not what agnostic means, jeb2010. Agnostic is being unsure about whether or not there is a higher power, or the belief that no one CAN know for sure.

Answer #8

jeb2010 that is not what it means to be agnostic at all.

I am agnostic and I believe that no one can prove or disprove that their is any sort of higher power. I also do not follow any religion or care to follow any religion.

Answer #9

You dont belong to any religion… You’re an atheist if you believe there is no God/gods. The rest of it is I suppose a moralistic way of life, listening to songs or stories does not count as anything really…

Agnosticism is not a religion, any more than atheism is a religion… Agnosticism is being unsure whether there is a higher power or the belief that it is not possible to prove or disprove the existence of a God/gods… Why people have come to the conclusion that agnosticism is a mild form of religiosity, or maybe a form of spirituality is beyond me…

Answer #10

well… I found myself asking the same thing my family all believes in god but im very scientific too I dont pray or fallow any religion..I believe in what I see on like nationall geo and discoverey channels…I just say that im irreligion.. I dont even say bless you when someone sneezes I think its disrespectful to people who believe and do say that.

Answer #11

Well you can be what ever religion you want. With me, I’m wiccan and the rest of my family is roman catholic. As long as your happy it dosn’t matter

Answer #12

you can have a beleife without religion. to me, religion is a bunch of rules to controll people. you dont need someone to tell you what to beleive just beleive what you feel is right and dont let anyone try to controll that.
