I've seen that this question hasn't been here on the forums yet and I'd like to see your answers, I myself am a deist.

Theist, specifically in the realm of Christianity. Officially I'm not a member of any established denomination, but I have been attending a Greek Orthodox parish from time to time over the course of the past year.

I think I believe in Ietsism. I believe there is a place where spirits go too, with different levels for how good you lived your live, but I hate the Idea of God. :twi:


If I don't understand something or Interpret it wrong, I'm dutch. Sometimes I gamble for meanings of the words. And sometimes I write the wrong words, like week and weak for example. Sorry for it already. :smug:

I don't know enough about the universe to come to a complete conclusion. I was raised catholic, became an atheist, but now knowing how untrusty science is, like religion, I don't really know. It's something I don't really care about either; I'd be as happy knowing there's a creature than knowing there's nothing.

Deism is preety much similar, although it's not about spreading hatred towards god but more of a ideology that god no longer exists, it did exist but now he 'fleed' away and has no longer the power over us. And deism itself hates the idea of churches, where they should be either taxed or shouldn't exist at all, which is exactly what my opinion about religion is.

When I was going up in England, my family were Protestants and went to church but we stopped doing that when I was around six years old. Since then, I don't really follow any kind of religion but I don't see myself as an atheist.

I go even further. I believe God hasn't exist at all. The churches have been too powerfull for too long, so they should be closed. I'm not going to say much more here, before I make enemies. ;)

Well yeah in some way we do share the same opinion, but keep in mind that religion is very objective and doesn't depend on an individual's opinion. It's a silly topic but in the same time so interesting for me to discuss about!

That's true, but I can't stand people who say something like this, for example:

  • God spoke to me and has given me advice, and that's why I did this and that.

Praying and belieft is acceptable and you are totally right to do so, but don't begin to convince me to believe or say something like my example above. Then I am going to ignore you, and if that not works angry.

I'm pretty much an atheist. Of course I could be wrong, but I like to think that a creator isn't needed to explain the universe. I think the universe is the result of a natural process we'll never be able to fully understand due to the sheer complexity of it or due to the process being unobservable from our speck of a planet. Entirely unscientific, but those are my thoughts about it.

I'm an atheist, always have been. Though I kinda envy people who believe in god or some other form of deity. World can be rather horrible place, full of wars and violence. It must be comforting to have faith that someone watches over you and that everything will turn all right in the end.

Wait. Atheism is a religious orientation?

<-- Atheist, by the way.

I don't follow no cults, regardless of how old they are.
