Ziff you really are splitting hairs. If ||bass included every sect on here of every religion, the list would be much longer than the [long] list it already is. Notice there is no option for Sunni versus Shiite Muslim. There is no Orthodox Jew, No Reformed Jew, and I thought there was another (Reformed Orthodox? LoL) option. Or even looking at Christianity, and let's say I'm a Methodist, and I don't really want to be lumped in with Protestantism. The hair splitting continues. |

I'm pretty sure that's close enough to atheism, Grey.
Edit: Also, last time I checked, wicca and witchcraft were the same thing, just with two different names. Witchcraft has the obvious negative connotations with most Christians, so Wicca is the more commonly used one. I might be wrong, but as that's my mother's religion I highly doubt it.
Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong.....
FIRST: Beliving in nothing for certain is much closer to agnosticism then atheism.
SECOND: Modern wicca was a religion formed in the 20th century by Gerald Gardner. A specific branch of witchcraft known now as Gardenian Witchcraft. Clearly the practice of witchcraft is much older then this (by several orders of magnitude). Thus, I offer the distinction. |

Zorastrianism, founded 600 BC (approx) by Zoraster. Attempted to unify Persian empire through a monothestic faith. Built around Judeic ideals, crossed with the old Mesopotomian, Babylonian, Assurian, Sumerian, etc. mythos.
Thus I vote other as I am a Catholic.
I am Catholic and I went to 11 years of Catholic school. I chose Christian on the poll. Don't be a prick and start playing semantics in this thread because I'll make things very difficult. The fact is, I dont have time to list every insignifigant denomination in a single poll. What I was INTENDING to do was that should I get votes in the field of Christian/Muslim/Jew and other ambiguous labels, I would poll the users individually and then present the statistics to everyone in the end. But since you decided to be a dick about it, I'm not sure if I should include you in the numbers at all now that you've told everyone you deliberately chose the incorrect field.
EDIT: Nevermind, I changed your vote for you.

I'm a Christian (Church of England: Anglican), have been since birth, i'm happy to admit I believe in it, and I'm glad ||bass actually just put us all under one heading, because despite our differences of practise, all Christians still believe in the one same thing. |

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics I am a Catholic.
I am however fairly strongly Atheist. I always have been, aside from brief fear-driven early adolescent flirtations with the notion of God - I can remember as a 6 year old arguing with other children that God did not exist. I probably thought of it along the same lines as Santa Claus - a myth or lie told by adults.
At about age 10 I was arguing with creationist friends of mine. So yes, I am an Atheist and I don't see any point in qualifying that with "maybe agnostic".
My nonbelief in God is not an issue, it never comes up for me. It's just apathy and Not Seeing God In The World Around Me.
I'm probably a humanist, but whatever.

does it not seem weird to anyone else that you "choose" a religion like this?
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Step right up folks, throw this magic dart on the correct religion and instantly win a trip for 1 away from eternal damnation!"
i'm deciding between Humanism and my favorite cop-out doctrine, Agnosticism |
