I am an atheist in the sense that I believe all human constructed Gods are fictional. I might fall more neatly into the agnostic category but it's too non-committal to express the conviction of my beliefs.

And while I endorse your perspective that the vast majority of people with religion are good people, I haven't found that ratio to be exclusive to those with any one faith or no faith at all.

A lush? Do explain

I would like to fall one or side or the other because being agnostic is sort of lazy (as well as frustrating). I don't want to say all human explanations are fictional because most of is it based off of ancient scripts and no-one can say whether that's a game of chinese whispers or not.

I can't say whether that ratio is true or not since i'm a typical white middle class person who only has a few friends of hindu/muslim/etc faiths, but they know they have their good thing and i have mine.

It seems i don't have a lot of answers for a lot of things!
