Movementarianism:



I used to be in Robotology but got kicked out for unknown reasons.

Seriously, I consider myself a non-theist or ignostic. I was raised Methodist.

I was raised Episcopalian; I have faith and subscribe to core beliefs (such as the Ten Commandments), but I suppose at this point something akin to non-denominational Christian would be appropriate.

It's between the First Church of Appliantology ...

...and the Church of the SubGenius.

I am absolutely convinced of the non-existence of God and angels.

I believe there is no god but Allah, and Muhammed is his prophet (PBUH).

Which religion am I? That's awfully presumptuous.....I live by certain philosophies when I choose. That is all.
If you now want to know how I was raised- my household was atheist.
And I have absolutely no regrets about that.

I'm not trying to be difficult here but, not everyone has a religious affiliation.

Most days I'm doing good just verifying that I exist.

Nope- I don't think that's what "other" means in this case..............Other would be- religious choice not mentioned above.
I don't have a religious choice not mentioned above. So I am clearly not "other".
I clearly believe in double negatives however- and you can not take that to no bank.

1. I think all faiths, or lack thereof have been put into some type of classification.

2. It would have been presumptuous if I named the thread "Cicero, What Religion are you???" It was after all a general question aimed at no one in particular, if a thread asks what kind of cell phones people have and you don't have one, is that presumptuous?
