Agnostic/Atheist/Buddhist

Well I have to open up my mouth and insert my foot on this one. I'll fall for it and ask, how do you decide whats for dinner when you are so confused? Like, come on man. How can you be an agnostic/atheist/Buddhist? Thats like being up down and left all at the same time? I had to laugh when I read that, big time. You humor me so much. I had better stop, I don't want this to be viewed as a personal attack of any kind?

But please explain, I am confused:-(

  1. Who says I’m confused? Actually, agnostic/atheist/Buddhist is very similar. Buddhism is considered by most to be a “religion” but the original idea was more of a philosophy than religion. It has been distorted and loaded up with all sorts of dogma that was added by people who absorbed the philosophy into their native beliefs. I personally subscribe to the philosophical aspect instead of the religious parts. And in Buddhism, there is no “God” in the Christian sense so Buddhists are generally considered atheists. Agnosticism is also a philosophy. It says that the existence of God is something that is unknown or something that is not possible to know based on our own perception. So they all actually fit very nicely together. It just so happens that no single philosophy sums up my spiritual beliefs. Perhaps I should devise my own.
