God is in semantics.

And to Raphiel, if that makes me a deist, than so be it. But Natachan, throw out god and address "something". It is obviously a human construct, that word, but I do still think it means...no pun on words...something. Were here, something created the rules of physics, chemistry, etc, how do you reconcile that and say that nothing created it and that it just is. I simply cant believe that.

I hope I didn't come across as critical. I only said it because you put agnostic which isn't strictly speaking true because you've made a decision on the origins of the universe. 
Atheism doesn't require the statement that nothing created the universe. Merely that a conscious creature of astounding power resembling a God almost certainly did not.
