I don't follow any religion. I'm a firm non-believer.

The answer is in the Eastern religions. Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, etc. Not necessarily the reincarnation principles, but the philosophy they hold.

Deism...funny story though...
The other day I was telling a girl at lunch about deism (she was raised catholic and was venturing away from it but keeping atheism at arm's length) and I told her I would like to one day build a deist cathedral.
I started sketching it out (it would look like a brain with four spires) and as soon as I did a guy next to me tells me that he was sitting in church the other day and he felt like God told him that I needed some reassurance. He gave me a book mark that says God Answers Prayers. I had just finished sketching that when he came over.
We have NEVER discussed religion before.
Weird eh?

Christian. By my own choice. But im not religious. I think no matter what religion/faith you are, its between you and your God. I am not ashamed to say im Christian, but normally leave the conversation there, unless somebody asks about Christianity. I definitly do not believe in pushing God onto people and being radical about anything, especially religion. I can honestly say that yes, I am a Christian, but I am also human. I swear, I drink, I do lots of things I shouldnt and if people want to be an ass and judge me on that, well thats their problem. Like I said, my faith is between me and my God.
