What do you call a non follower of neither atheism or theism

RE: What do you call a non follower of neither atheism or theism
(January 13, 2014 at 12:26 pm)It Is i Wrote: I'm flabbergasted by humanity's apparent need for labels, and the vehemence with which it demands to affix them to everything and everyone in sight. I suspect it eases a sense of internal tension within oneself to apply a label to something. After all, who would be comfortable around anyone who is not subject to the masses demands, and who would dare befriend such an alien in this world? I applaud the OP's bravery in exposing their true feelings in a place where labels are so very important to others.

Oh my god Banging Head On Desk

He wants to be pure, to not have the baggage and the negative social stigma that is already put on the average atheist, he doesn`t want to feel or risk contributing to something bad which may happen within the belonging group.
Humans label everything.
This is a rock, this is a bug, this is a penis, this is the hypothalamus.
Don`t psychoanalyze this, it`s pointless.

I did this myself a while back.
I was asked if I believed in God, I said BlaBlaBla , and they ended up asking me "so you`re an atheist?", No I wouldn`t really wanna label myself as that, I don`t really like belonging to groups, and having to have the social expectations of an atheist on myself.
Do drugs, believe in people, and make them smile!
