I'm an agnostic atheist.

By the way, it's not a group, it's simply not believing in god, a.k.a. no religious group at all. :P

*Cough, cough*

Agnosticism and atheism don't rule out each other. An atheist can be an agnostic atheist - someone who doesn't believe in gods, but doesn't claim to know they don't exist, and a gnostic atheist - someone who doesn't believe in gods and claims to know they don't exist.
Similarly, theists can be agnostic or gnostic.

So agnosticism deals with knowledge and theism/atheism deals with belief or lack of it.

Hey, I was just simply saying it wasn't a group, therefore it should not be capitalized. :P

I'm not saying Bla shouldn't, he capitalizes everything. He's a grammar capitalist, but an political communist! :P

Anyways, you have to add Agnostic Atheist and Gnostic Atheist to the poll.

Here's a lot of religions you missed:
Shinto
Sikhism
Islam
Jainism
Bahá'í Faith
Hinduism
Taoism
Confucianism

Even if no one follows it here, it's still good to have them on there.

I'm a weird cross between roman catholic and agnostic.  So I would fit into 2 categories. IM a SUPER Open minded Catholic, but would lean to agnostic

Agnostic atheist, just because I can't get myself to believe in a god.  However I do look to Jesus as an inspirational figure, whether or not he really existed.  I am not a militant atheist and I don't have a problem with religious people, so long as they don't push their "faith" upon others.

Wait, why is my vote Gnostic Atheist now? Did you change the options or did I just misclick an option?
It'd be nice if you'd enable the option to change your vote, FiahStorm.

I agree some of the things Jesus said were good. I think too many people view it as if you agree with just some of the things Jesus said, then you should identify as a Christian. If people would just stop reserving that logic for the single religion they want to identify as, I think most of us will end up as Buddhist Muslim Socialist Jewish Christian Conservative Humanist Hinduist Capitalist Nationalist..... AND SO ON. And you will have to join a lot of organizations, parties etc. then. I think you can exactly as an irreligious person examine all the religious books just like any other books and say "I agree with this, that's wrong, this is true, this is false...".

Some of what Jesus said is also bad. Like "I come not to bring peace, but to bring a sword." (Gospel of Matthew 10:34)

Edit poll and then allow users to change vote.

I just did it, but I can change it back if you don't want it that way.

No, everyone can do it. I did the same in the religion topic I made some years ago.
