I'm an agnostic who heard that most aspies are athiest or agnostic. Would anyone care to provide more information on the subject?

I'm technically agnostic. I'm a bit skeptical about the idea of a higher power. I don't doubt it, but if you show me proof of a god, I'll believe.

I would be classified as "spiritual, but not religious". I stopped going to church after my pastor moved out of state (I was Lutheran for four years).

I'm a member of the Church of Garlic and an atheist. Garlic is very supportive of atheism as long as you eat garlic. He is not some egomanic that needs to boost his
ego by having a mere mortal praying to him.

I have a lot of "issues" with religion.I basicly chose agnostic as I can neither prove nor disprove a higher power.As an existentialist,I decided to believe in some elements of Karma(not all) and try and live my life accordingly.I have always been interested in nonmaterial theory.I find it fascinating...religion,on the other hand,just scares the hell out of me(pun intended).

Yeah! OWA is the head of the Church. Eating one raw clove of garlic completes your
baptism.

I'm a Buddhist-and this religion is atheistic-but I believe in the possibility of a higher power.I'm mostly spiritual,though.

No. The concepts of monotheistic/polytheistic religion are not only illogical and irrational, but counterproductive. Wasting time praying to a concept does nothing. Blind faith without proof is delusion.

Man created the concept of God, to explain unknown phenomenon. Nothing that can't be explained by science now.

Atheism. I have yet to see why I should worship something for which there is no proof, reason, or explanation.

Sorry if I offend anyone, but that's how I see it.

I believe in a god or some sort of intelligent design in this universe. I either think that a god or some type of higher power is looking after the timelines of our lives or helping us. I don't know a religion that I necessarily like or would follow. I would become a Buddhist but I lack in effort towards religions. The last time I picked up a religion (Christianity) I became an excessive believer which nearly made me lose my 'life friend.'

Egotheist (Which is technically a form of atheism)

I internalize God. I worship myself as my own God. This not naricissism because I am only my own God and no one elses God.

2 reasons I don't think god, I fallow the science way if you look at both of them they fallow the same thing but back up with fact's in most places, plus don't need to know if some higher power is out they coz I see it this way the "Galaxy" is on a table in a sphere, with some "Giant Kid" saying dad look at my lil "Science Universe Grow" - man I like the fact they think I am a "God" :) ...

I take this from "Men in Black" with the "Galaxy" in the lil chain on the "Cat".

As the second reason while most are praying not for something bad to happen or good, I will take action...

Don't know if all RE people do that praying stuff instead of taking action, mind you I don't like the fact people leave they kid's with RE people.... " Sound's mentaly blind by your RE to do it "

Everyone go in your "Bathroom and say white lady 3 times" :P
