Re: More updates
I don't think they really have a label for me. I've never been good a fitting into niches.
Hmmmmm? Painful childhood memories manifesting themselves in adulthood by an aversion to conformity in order to feel the superiority they lacked in childhood. How close was I? I'm just messin' with you. .......... Or am I?
Notice I labeled myself a Deist, since I reject the rituals of organized religion, and got put under the Theists.
A Deist is a form of Theist. The poll stems from an argument between another member and I about whether or not there are more atheists than theists. It was just sort of a fun, inquisitive poll. If I broke everyone's beliefs down into their smallest sudivision, we'd be all over the place. I mean, I've noticed that I can't two Deists to come to an agreement on the notion of God. And maybe 'organized religion' seems far removed from your personal beliefs, as pantheism seems far removed from mine, but we are still Theists. Please don't be offended. It was not my intention.

“It is in vain, O' man, that you seek within yourselves the cure for all your miseries. All your insight has led you to the knowledge that it is not in yourselves that you will discover the true and the good.” -Blaise Pascal

Re: Near the end of the poll
You haven't included under 'born again atheist'.
That's because it bears no relevance to the poll. Whether someone was a born-again atheist doesn't change the fact that they voted atheist.

Re: Theist, Atheist, or Agnostic
Not to be an ass (but it does just come naturally), but while my head says "atheist", my actions say "theist" and my heart is numb at this point. It's like when you sit on your ass too long, and it's just painful to move or anything, your legs leave you... I'm just waiting out all the learning and growing to see what I'll feel when I've had time to settle into the new me.
Does that sound, then, like ... agnostic? Feel free to diagnose and tally as you see fit.
Well, I can't really answer that with certainty, but from your description it sounds very agnostic to me. Based on that description I will list you as such. If for any reason you find it objectionable, write back and express that aversion to me and I will rectify it.
