What the hell am I? (Gnostic Atheist or Agnostic)

RE: What the hell am I? (Gnostic Atheist or Agnostic)
Seems to me that you have a security blanket. You've given up all belief, but you can't imagine that there is not anything beyond just us so you put that little splash of supernatural spiritualistic crap.

Why does there have to be something more than just what there is? I too, am pretty fucking amazed by the universe. I mean...

However, just because it's amazing doesn't mean it has to have a supernatural element.

And meditation is not efficacious for some type of supernatural element. It works purely through physical means of relaxation. Some people get something out of it, others don't.

Anyway, if you want to label yourself, you sound closer to a pantheist.
