(I'm american so bear with me)

I find it funny that the Japanese don't really consider Shintoism and Buddhism as religions. The two are incorporated into their everyday lives.

I just find that funny.

its once said that buddhism is not a religion. its more of a belief and a way of life. something like confuscian.

unlike Christianity or the oh-so-obnoxious Islams, they won't go around recruiting like the world's about to end.

unlike the aforementioned christians and muslims and what-not, they don't run around asking for people to convert. they just wait and convert any who wants.

well, yeah, the mistake on my part.

but then again, it really doesn't matter. God, religion or no, we all become one with the dirt.

at that point, it really doesn't matter.

besides, come to think of it, it totally depends who's in whose side. any one of these erligions can have extremists in them. only difference is the teachings.

I've always thought of myself as Atheist... But I've had some things happen recently that made me wonder what happens to our souls/concousness when we die... I think i'm leaning more toward agnosticism...

You can be an atheist and still believe in a soul, Nanashi.

No, you can't.
The definition of atheism is that God does not exist.
Let's break down the word:
a -> negation prefix.
theist -> someone who believes in the existance of God.

a + theist = atheist = someone who does not believe in the existance of God.
