Thanks for the clarification 'Shal.

But here is some more of my thoughts open for a discussion..

1. Religious doctrine pitches existence as: We being in this universe
dictating our existence and why we got to be here. To me existence is the
concept of there being "anything" (The best word I can think of to
contradict utter nothingness) regardless if we are here or not. This I
believe makes the question about God a little simpler. By my account the
universe exists and I believe it would be the case even if I am not here. I
believe I can see it, even feel it if my assumption that earth is part of
the universe is correct. Now the God question: Does this universe require a
God? Well, honestly I do not know the answer to that. The subsequent
investigative question is: What is God? Once more I have no clue. Is God an
entity or a process? I believe that we as a species came to use the God
concept as a pretty neat way of explaining something we do not understand. I
disbelieve and reject the way religion (meant in the broadest possible
sense) portrays "existence". Dogma does not account for scientific study nor
does it satisfy common sense. The clincher: I believe if God exits, we can
prove it. I have not seen the evidence, but what is the use of a God if you
cant know of his existence, particularly when you are inclined not to
believe it. This disqualifies me from being Agnostic.
2. Atheism is like religion, it tries to prove an outcome by presenting
limited evidence to the effect. It also denies the fact that we have no
clue. I have no desire to prove or disprove the existence of God without
doing the math. I know I will not have the time to finish the calculation,
but that will not force me to a premature conclusion. This summarily
disqualifies me from being religious and atheistic.

My conclusion: I am me. I am 100% self minded and will not believe something
to belong or to be accepted.
