Personally I'm agnostic. But the category is religion not atheism. That's probably why.

I am a human being seeking the truth of life. I am open to truth. I see all human beings as my fellow beings. I am willing to listen to anybody. What do you call my religion?

"Religion is commonly defined as a group of beliefs concerning the supernatural, sacred, or divine, and the moral codes, practices, values, institutions, and rituals associated with such belief." \n\nScience can be your religion if you want it to be. Not all religions believe in a God, it is more about a life style. Religion is something you hold great truth to. It is the most important thing in your life. It is what you live for. That is the way I understand it anyway.

I personally think that religion is what everone thinks they should know to be a good person.  Spirtual I think is not commercialized but what your heart tells you is the right thing.  It is something so wonderful that you and only you knows the secret.

Yes I believe in God, but not the way traditional Christians do.  I'm a Gnostic Christian.

I don't believe in religion, I believe in discipleship.  People can hide in religion and follow set rules for their lives instead of thinking for themselves and going through the Spirit's transformation, robbing themselves of a real spiritual life.

I see it as a religion of those who don't believe in a supreme being. Since religion is a belief in something then same goes for them.

It takes what one would call 'faith'. I personally consider myself to have no religion, therefore I don't entirely understand why someone, rather most people in this world, would believe in a 'higher power', an 'intelligent creator', or 'GOD'.

People are people. I wouldn't advise basing your opinion of someone, as a person, on their religion. It depends. And that can be said of any group of people.

How old are you and what religion

I am atheist.  We actually take time to read the Bible and other books of faith and study and interpret the multiple meanings.   It is quite interesting how one passage in the Bible and be interpreted in many ways and even contradict itself.  \n\nWe find that most preacher teach what they want their congregation to know. \n\nWe do lack faith, however we are genuinely impressed with the influences religion has had on people, cultures, art, music, war, etc.

What makes you think that you are right? Doesn't the person who believes in another religion or none at all have the same proof or deep beliefs in their faith?  What makes you think that they aren't all the same or that your way is the only right way?

I don't have any religious beliefs.\nI'm just an all-around believer in the spiritual.\nI have these beliefs because of my personal experiences with religion.

Since I fit into the category of non-religious, but feel I'm more spiritual, I'll describe my feelings on it. The words to me mean that Spirituality has substance to me, but religion tends to put people against each other, always each person trying to be "Right'...it divides, doesn't unite people, in my opinion.I do believe in intelligent creation, that God created everything. God is the supreme being. I believe in the afterlife, definitely...but in the sense that we were all put here to learn to be more Christ like, and we will be judged by God someday, and those who didn't do better with what they knew at the time, will be given another opportunity to learn God's way...They won't go immediately to the so called "Hell!" God is a loving God, and wants us all to share eternity with God!\nAs for universal ethics, if you mean the Golden rule or the 10 Commandments, or just a right way of living. live and let live, etc...YES!\nThere may be more to Spirituality  being different than religion, in that I do not subscribe to an organized religion. I feel that the greatest difference for me is that I have felt the presence of God's spirit and closeness to Christ, more so, than any religion I was ever in. \nThe practical impact that my faith has on my everyday life, is that I've learned that allowing God and Jesus (to take the wheel, as it's been said) to be to be in charge of what I do, and how I think and pray, and how I learn from my experiences, and many other applications, influences the outcomes and perspectives of the kind of person I've become.\nSuch an interesting and well though out question!

Lots of big issues right now.\n\nI wouldn't call it religion, at least for me.  More of a serious hobby.
