This might be a little different from the standard skeptic definition, which is more close to agnostic views. I do not want to become an atheist without studying. (It would make me no better person than I was, blindly following the Koran and now blindly following atheism). I have very limited knowledge, I would love to improve on that and come to some sort of conclusion.
OK ... you're gonna hear this a lot round here so I might as well be first. Most here seem to agree (with me) that you don't choose to be an atheist ... you simply become one when you cease believing in claims to deity. Others claim it is valid to be an agnostic atheist ... I don't agree and am "discussing" it with the boss (

Whatever your view, you're questioning and that can only be a good thing.
