POLL: How religious are you II

[CaptainCernick]

This Poll is a follow-up of another one I created a while ago. In these polls, I try not to probe what your beliefs are, I want to know how you believe.
This poll tries to probe how you consider other beliefs, thus measuring "how religious" you are.
Take your time to read through all the options before you vote and take some time to think each of them over carefully. Also, don't forget to read my notes at the end of this post, I might explain uncertainties or define some "spacious" terms used in the poll options there.
These are the options to choose from:

OPTION 1: I have no need to explain existence and the unknowable.

OPTION 2: I am not sure my belief (be it atheism, deism, (...) or a religion of some kind) is the only possible explanation or belief. It is possible "the others" are right as well.

OPTION 3: My belief does not automatically exclude other possibilities. This is a bit difficult to explain, so I'll just give an example: Christians, Jews and Islamites all believe in one god. In fact this is the same god, these religions are just three different "views" of him.

OPTION 4: I am sure my belief is the only right explanation. The others are wrong, but everyone is entitled to believe what they want.

OPTION 5: My belief is the only right one. It is important that all other- or non-believers are turned to my point of view.

*Belief does not mean religion and does not necessarily imply believing in a god. Atheism is also a belief, since atheists believe there is no god. A belief is what you consider to be the explanation for your existence, what happens in and after life, etc.
*If you don't agree with any of the statements, or believe that one of them is incomplete or not clear, be sure to let me know.
*If you have voted and you wish to do so, reply to this thread with your age, sex, religion and nationality.
*I invite everyone to discuss here, but don't stray too far off-topic and DON'T FLAME

Me? Option 4; ie, I believe it would be better if everyone believed what I believe, as then we lose annoying little things like an external being telling people what to do and think and lose religious conflict (athiesm can't internally conflict)

Agnostic, Turning Atheistic in the presence of extreme Christians,

Option 3, with slight mixing of Option 1, sure its possible God exists, I just seriously doubt it.

Armenian Apostolic Christian (Armenian Orthodox, Diocesan), may one day choose to become a priest, or a deacon, or at least attend a seminary.

Option 3. Christianity, if people did it RIGHT, ends up like an utter socialist utopia. But bah, since when do people think rationally? So I guess I lean a bit towards 4 as well.

I am a mix of 3 and 4 i suppose. I tolerate others' beliefs, but I am sure in my atheism and do eventually want religion and theism to be eradicated, which it inevitably will be, though not in my lifetime certainly.

Religion- none.
I have no religious beliefs, but I am a deist. I consider it more of a philosophy than a faith, and more of a scientific possibility than a superstitious belief.

Probably mix of 1 and 2. I truly dont know what could be up/down/anywhere there, but i do feel like there is some higher "presence"(for lack of a better word) that seems to be calling the cards.

Age: 21
Gender: Male
Nationality: Sri Lankan born Australian
Religion: None

None of those option's apply to me since Iam agnostic. But I belive that religions do have many purposes in life but it has nothing to do with representing god. I don't care what other people belive as long it doesn't interfere with my life, or ruin somebody else's life.

Religion: Christianity(No particular sect)

I am with option 3/4 ish. It would be very well if other people believed, but they have human rights to believe what they wish to believe. Religion is important to me, and my meaning in life. It helps me live day to day, and I believe my beliefs, and those of many others similiar to mine, can seriously help the world.

Religion: Unsure

I suppose Option 1. I believe in the existence of God because I have felt a presence which can only be attributed to God, but I don't know whose God, if any, is the right one. I used to be Christian, so I am particularly inclined to that belief, but have been separating more and more from it in my search for what's actually the right thing.

Definately Option 2. Very much so. However, I'm a sort of Option 2-Option 4'er, as in, I reckon the world would be hepas better if all religious peoplewere Option 2, geddit? Anyway, they're all the one God, I reckon.

Belief does not mean religion and does not necessarily imply believing in a god. Atheism is also a belief, since atheists believe there is no god.

Do I understand correctly that the proposed poll has no option for people who have do not have any beliefs concerning the existence or nature of gods?

Muizer

[Ummon]

With Muizer's exception seconded, far better wording in this poll.

[Gill]

I don't believe either.
So where is that option?

I'm not sure what you mean. Read my definition of "belief" and tell me why said people don't fall under it.

This poll is not about what you believe. If you don't believe in divine existence, It is still considered a belief for this poll.

Belief does not mean religion and does not necessarily imply believing in a god. Atheism is also a belief, since atheists believe there is no god. A belief is what you consider to be the explanation for your existence, what happens in and after life, etc.

To all people who are already saying what they'd vote on, I assume you agree with the options?

[Muizer]

I'm not sure what you mean. Read my definition of "belief" and tell me why said people don't fall under it.

The essence of belief is that it answers questions about the unknowable. Said people do not feel the need to have those questions answered.

Muizer

Interesting, I'll add it to the poll.
Voila, it's added. What do you think of it? It's a very abstract concept to me, so I hope I got it right. Let me know if I should change it.

Option 3; I don't believe that there is any "right" religion, a muslim who lives a good, generous life has just as much a chance as the afterlife as a catholic who does the same imo. However I find my outlook to be closest to catholic.
