Right now, I'm not officially part of any religion. I am learning more about Islam currently though, so I might take the step and convert sometime soon.

Spiritual girl and always will be, however I still do my best to understand other peoples perspectives of different religions out of respect. Just because I'm not religious doesn't mean I should be ignorant nor arrogant to the thoughts of others.

I am atheist, thank god.

But if I'll ever feel necessity to worship something, I would follow some Old Gods.

This one superior universal God worshipped by monotheists seems too cruel for me.

They're all retired. Zeus and Poseidon are running cruises for British tourists in the Aegean. Hades is the head of a mining conglomerate in Brazil. Athena heads up a boutique real estate outfit in London and Aphrodite is a consultant to aging Hollywood stars on keeping up their appearance. Og, and Hephaistos makes those weird gadgets you see on TV ads late at night.

I dabble around a lot, most recently I've been studying discordianism and feeling good about it. The most constant aspect of my religion has been agnosticism about the existence of any of it. :p

I identify as agnostic or atheist in most situations because it's easier than explaining that I'm an agnostic Druid.

http://www.druidry.org/druid-way/what-druidry

I'm not as extreme or as spiritual as many druids.
I don't believe there was a god or goddess that breathed life into Earth.

But I believe that all living things are connected in some way.
We all understand empathy, more or less.

I think keeping our planet healthy is extremely important.
Art and creativity are the central foundation for human existence. Without it, we are nothing, really.

And finally, I have my own beliefs about dreaming, astral projection, and planes of reality that I don't want to get into right now because I don't feel like getting flamed.
I'm a cis-het male. Ask me about my privilege.

Is there some religionist?

Since there is such topic, can someone shortly explain me differences about main branches of satanism?

Super-serious question.

Christianity. Love science. I am told I am stupid, backwards and homophobic now and then.

Signed up for it, though. Bigots can be fun to talk to. Now and then you run into someone that isn't well and truly a bigot, just misguided and misinformed. Gotta be the example that teaches good things to those few redeemable souls.

I'm an agnostic, but also a spiritualist. I'm not arrogant (or confident, depending on how you see it) enough to claim there is or isn't a god (let alone only one), but I do think there's enough evidence to support the existence of spirits.
