Now I want to know where robvalue would place me.
Here's what I believe so no one has to dig for it (if they want to tell me where I stand in accordance with religious views/belief in God):
I am unsure of whether there is a God or not. If there is a God, it is all encompassing and explain everything and it is a single God. This God would be in everything and the universe itself may be a God.
I think due to our culture as we know it today, that belief in God is a hot button issue, which causes some people to have extreme beliefs that are often not justified.
I believe that there are very strong psychological components to belief and that everyone believes some things due to bias which is caused by and imperfection in our perception; belief fills the gaps of what we do not know.
I believe the best person to trust on whether I believe in God or not is myself, since I cannot assume that others have my best self interest in mind.

But your individuality and your present need will be swept away by change,
and what you now ardently desire will one day become the object of abhorrence.
