If in doubt then by definition you're agnostic. |
I'm surprised you made it so restrictive. This is not intended as a dig in any way but in many of the discussions I've had with self-professed humanists, all have viewed religion/faith/whatever as being very black-or-white.
It may make it easier for your lot to 'pigeon hole' those with faith (and in some cases it might be appropriate) but it makes it very difficult for us to get our point across in a way you'd understand - it's like my asking you "do you like music" with only 'yes' or 'no' as options.
For example, I have no religion, I don't follow a religion and I'm not part of a religion yet I am very sure about what I believe in, which option do I choose?
As it is, it would have to be 'none of the above' had it been a choice.
