Do I believe in God, a god, gods,.. ? No, I don't.
Do I deny the existence of 'a supreme being'? No, I don't. Right now I have no reason to assume such a thing exists. However this does not mean I deny it (can) exists.
I have not yet seen any evidence or proof (be it empirical or axiomatic-deductive) or even any indication to assume such a thing, that religious people call God, exists.
I also have not yet looked for any evidence or proof of the existence of such a being.
And I have no inclination to look for any evidence or proof of the existence of such a being.
I simply don't care.
Am I anti-religion? No, I am not. Anything that may inspire people to do good, help others, lead a 'virtues' life,... has value imo.
However, I am aware of the fact that organized religion can and in the past has been abused by people with bad intentions. But this does not make me anti-religion. The fact that religious movements or organizations can be abused is not something that results from religion itself but from human individuals who decide to ignore their personal responsibilities and decide to follow a leader (any leader) or organization without respecting other people's fundamental (property) rights.
