Gnostic. It's a form of Christianity. We Gnostics believe that Jesus was just a man, but a man infused with the Son of God, which possessed Jesus during his life. We believe matter is evil, and therefore we don't accept the tenet that Christians will rise from their tombs in their earthly bodies of flesh and be reborn. We believe that after death we leave these bodies of clay and ascent to the Pleroma (the realm of higher spiritual intelligences) provided we have obtained spiritual knowledge during this life. We believe that the god of the Old Testament is evil, or at least ignorant of the good. Mankind was liberated from this false god's prison of ignorance by the Christ, which descended in the form of a serpent to liberate humanity from our chains of ignorance by giving us the gift of attaining gnosis (spiritual knowledge). The Christ descended a second time into the body of the man Jesus to show us the way to gnosis, which not every man can attain.

Everyone is agnostic. No one KNOWS. There is no objective knowledge of gods. There is only BELIEF.

Believing and practicing a belief through a religion; Catholic, Lutheran.. etc are different. You except the free gift of salvation, come to repentance and that's it, you are now a Christian. If you want to join a church to practice your faith you are now religious.

Have you ever thought about the couple of billion other people in the world of different religious beliefs? Don't you think you should at least read some of their holy books first before jumping to conclusions? I mean, just within Christianity itself there are some 40k different denominations all over the world, and about 1,500 of them are here in America. I'm not sure if Mormonism is included in that count or if it's considered a whole new breed of religion. But how do you know Mormonism is the true faith? Have you SEEN some of the cathedral like churches they've built?? WOW. And they've got military style vaults bored deep into the mountains to keep all sorts of historical documents and what have ya. What I'm getting at here is that you don't know what you don't know, and you won't even know that you didn't know until you do finally know, ya know? I believe in a creator, don't get me wrong. But after having spent many years in my youth as a devout pentecostal christian, then morphing into an anti-theist atheist as an early adult into my late 20's, then morphing out of that idiotic faith based belief system into the guy I am today: a guy that has learned enough to know not to get emotionally attached to ideas. You never know when you're going to stumble across the next piece of information that could change the way you see everything. It's happened to me 3 times, and each time was like an existential crisis for me because I had shaped my identity around those beliefs and ideas. And here's a few quotes from the genius billionaire Charlie Munger who helped me learn how not to get attached to ideas:
“I have what I call an iron prescription that helps me keep sane when I naturally drift toward preferring one ideology over another and that is: I say that I'm not entitled to have an opinion on this subject unless I can state the arguments against my position better than the people who support it. I think only when I've reached that state am I qualified to speak. This business of not drifting into extreme ideology is a very, very important thing in life” ~Charlie Munger "We all are learning, modifying, or destroying ideas all the time. Rapid destruction of your ideas when the time is right is one of the most valuable qualities you can acquire. You must force yourself to consider arguments on the other side." ~Charlie Munger "I never allow myself to have an opinion on anything that I don’t know the other side’s argument better than they do." ~Charlie Munger And a little Socrates for good measure: "The only thing I truly know, is that I know nothing." ~Socrates
