Atheist.
And what is that Hindi or similar supposed to mean? There's only one Hinduism, ya know. Many sects, one religion. Kinda like saying Christian or similar. Wait, Mormonism would fit that I suppose.....

I'm an Athiest a supose. I have a lot of respect for the Buddist way but i don't have the will power to follow that path. I used to be a rabid protestant, in fact at one point i was a member of the Grand Orange Lodge of Ireland. Luckily i discovered my distaste for fundies of any nature and i left the order

Actually, I was referring to some of the polytheistic southeast asian religions.

We aren't that good. I'll concede that to the Wahabaists.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

Athiest....though my relatives are protestants. They don't know that I'm an athiest and I prefer it that way. I already take enough flak for not wanting to listen to the fucking Gaithers. :evil:

(The reason I put this here and not in SLaM is becaue it isn't a debate, just a poll to see what religions are represented here.)
Wholly secular humanist (atheist) with just the occasional lingering Christian-induced guilt. Though not a whole lot of it. And certainly less of it by the day.

I'm an atheist, and I've never been anything else. And that's no joke.

Atheist. Used to be an anglican, but if you ever watched Yes Prime Minister you would know that even anglican bishops aren't required to believe in God, in fact it can be a disadvantage.

Just as long as you don't have a "Shrine of Verilon" you're OK. Well, maybe if its a big poster size picture that's OK, but hundreds of wallet-sized are a no-no.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
