Count me in. I think Thump stated my position best . . . even if there was a god, a powerful, fair, and beautiful being, and I was totally overwhelmed with awe . . . that doesn't mean I'm going to join a group that will dictate how I approach this being, how I think, how I respond to believers and non-believers.
Such groups almost immediately go to an "us against them" and "we're right, they're wrong" mentality. And then this god would have to step in and keep them from killing then non-believers . . . just 'cause somebody decided that a group was necessary.
