in religious terms -> what am i?
Trauma-san:
--- Quote ---i'm not an athiest. because i dont denounce any god/s.
i'm not agnostic, theist or gnostic. because am not concerned with the existance of god/s. agnostics are undecided. theists and gnostics believe in gods.
maybe i'm an apath-eist ;) but that word doesnt exist...
i'm not pagan. because 1) i acknowledge other faiths with no bigotry but their god is not my god. 2) i am *something* pagans are staunchly *nothing*
the closest i've found so far are 'pagan/gnostic' but even though i dont denounce any gods. i'm notconcerned with them. gnostics pursue truth in god.

My .02 would be that you just don't care about religion. You probably find it interesting, but only in a political or historical sense, you just think it's interesting to see how religion effects things, and what different religions believe. You probably just don't really feel a need to choose a religion, or worry about god, or whatever. That doesn't mean you're bad, or you're going to hell or anything, it just means religion isn't an issue to you... right now. I think maybe as you get older, get a family, etc. things like that might become important to you, but then again plenty of people die without ever being concerned with religion.
Latter Day Saints believe that everyone is guided by the holy ghost, whether they're christians or not, basically... your conscience is the lord telling you to do things, or giving you guilt, or positive feelings about things... that's why, even without being concerned about god, or feeling like you have to do anything for god, or whatever, you still abhor injustice, and you still feel good when you smile at kids, and things like that. That's why people feel bad when they lie, even when nobody knows it, stuff like that. We would say the holy ghost is guiding your life whether you realize it, or even care about it. God loves all his kids, even if they don't know him, or have the need for him, or whatever. Peace~
