Your beliefs are pretty much mine. I'm functionally an atheist, because I believe if there is a God, he may have set us going, but now we're of no concern to Him, Her, Them, It, All, or whatever. But, I occasionally entertain the notion of a God, so I'm an agnostic.

Sometimes I think if there is a God, we're like God's TV. Like Job...

I don't know what created or caused the universe to come into being.

The Prime Mover, reservation

...and if you think it was all random, then your God is randomness

Never can resolve this because it always deconstructs into a tautology or 3

I like going with being a Christian atheist

I embrace the teachings of the conceptual Christ, but deny any supernatural events advanced by any teaching

I ain't got no faith, if there is no evidence, it did not happen
