Areligious
Props if you actually consider that an option, since I'm definitely not an atheist or an agnostic.
Any religion is an option, including people with no beliefs.
Perhaps you could alter the question a little; maybe it's just me but saying "What is your religion" sounds like it's excluding people of no religion.
I can't think of a way to word the title to not exclude people without a religion. I'm agnostic myself, I don't mean to exclude anyone.

I don't see that at all :I
Well it's just whenever someone says "What is your religion" and then includes atheism, a lot of the times it starts an argument on whether or not atheism is a religion

Areligious

I'm curious: explain the difference between the three. I've seen all sorts of stuff about agnosticism but I've never actually seen anything about being areligious.
I'd imagine that areligious also excludes atheistic religions (such as Buddhism) but in a religious population of (I think) almost exclusively theistic religions it seems unnecessary.

"What are your religious beliefs?" maybe?
I really don't give a stuff as long as what I mentioned in my first quote reply doesn't happen

I just say
I don't follow any religion in particular
to avoid that

plus, if you say atheist, everyone knows what you mean. but people are obviously arguing on whether or not it is a religion for the sake of being a smartass



Make an actual poll maybe?

I don't have a religion, but If I had to pick I'd choose atheist.

I would think that areligion and agnosticism would be about the same, but agnosticism is more like a polite "I'm not religious" and areligion might be something more like "I think religion is stupid and see no reason for it to exist." Perhaps less harsh, but you get it.

Gimme a minute, I'll try to add as many religions as possible into a poll.

I'm torn between praying to Kynareth and Dibella.


I have no religion, but I want to believe god exists.
Or there is at least something after life.

you could have actually made a poll
atheist representing here

agnostic

you believe in god? cool.

you don't believe in god? cool.

you want me to believe in god? you don't want me to believe in god? forget you.
