Agnostic atheist.

I think the claim that there is a god and the claim that there isn't a god both lack support, but the claim that there isn't a god is a lot closer to being supported than the claim that there is a god, which in turn is a lot closer than the claim that there is a given god with specific characteristics as defined in an old book.

I would probably be better off saying that I am either Agnostic theist or a plural spiritualist.

I want to say that I do believe in a higher power and that there is an afterlife, however I can't prove that claim and therefore assert that I just only believe in such things.

I would go into more detail about it and I probably will at some point, but basically I don't believe in the institution of religion but in spirituality itself and that all (or most) paths eventually lead to a transcendent higher power.

DSc in Theology since 1948. Became Atheist in 1981.
The RCC is the richest organisation on this planet, spends a fortune on regalia but gives a pittance for those in need - even clawing that back in interest.

Former Christian, now Agnostic wavering between Atheism and vague Spiritualism.
Telling an atheist to burn in Hell is like telling an adult that Santa's not bringing him any presents this year.
