I have my own set of beliefs, but basically an agnostic. I consider myself a good person, just not a religious one. Borrowing a quote from Thomas Paine:

Quote:
I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish Church, by the Roman Church, by the Greek Church, by the Turkish Church, by the Protestant Church, nor by any Church that I know of. My own mind is my own Church.
That being said - I feel that if there is an afterlife, and a god does exist...if he was spiteful enough to send me to hell for not worshipping him...that isn't a god I would have wished to worship in the first place. Err...not sure if that makes sense when I write it out, but its perfectly clear in my head. its probably too late for me to be thinking about these sort of things.
