I honestly don't believe I have it in me to become a christian again, too many logical fallacies, inconsistencies and contradictions. But I do believe there may be someone/something up there that started all this off.Maybe you just need to clarify usage of the word may in your post. If you were simply making a vague statement that there may or may not have been someone or some force that was involved in the creation of the universe and you consider the notion irrelevant because it cannot be known, I would say yes. I would consider you to be an agnostic atheist.

Good choice Vix.
Deism is free, Theism needs admission fees because the theistic Gods are still active and constantly like to remind us that we're going to hell.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear. 
Sorry, not good enough, delete your account and come back when you're 95% atheist.
Kidding, kidding!
