For starters I don't think it is fair to lump Agnostic in with Atheist and Non-Religious. It has been ignorantly done so and it seems the three have become synonymous, even within the mainstream media which begs another discussion on the power of organized religion.
I have always found it funny, that on an adult board in the adult industry that anyone could claim to be associated or as following any particular indoctrination when in fact those vary same religions MUST shun you based solely on the merits of your work. I refer not only to the members of that religion shunning you but the very documents that that religion is founded on.
If this type of person wasn't bad enough you get the organized new ager who, in a desperate attempt to be a member of the flock and saved, twists that religions ideology to fit their own moral direction. They cling to a religion they can NEVER be accepted in, yet try to convince themselves that they do by some misguided, and quite imaginary, second set of principles they created just to fit in. As if that religions laws are somehow malleable so they can be accepted too.
It is the ultimate hypocrisy.
