... yeah, went with "something else". Apatheism could possibly be shoehorned under agnosticism or atheism (particularly the former), but it's distinct enough I don't personally consider it the same thing.

Quote from: Google
Apatheism is more an attitude than a belief or belief system. An Apatheist is a person who regards the question of the existence or non-existence of a god or gods to be essentially meaningless and irrelevant

Not that Google should dictate what is or is not a belief system, but I hadn't heard of Apatheism.  And I'd be tempted, personally, to consider it a kind of agnosticism.  But it's a position on religion, I suppose.
Mainly posting to clarify wtf the word means.

Where's Nihilism?

That's a philosophy though, not a religion.

Using default forum settings (or maybe 50 posts per page), so, page 24 right now.

Edit: No, 20 or 25 posts per page.

I love this forum.

It was inevitable.

Seriously though, it hapens in nearly every thread where someone remarks that "Wow, X thread is over X number of pages". Then everyone else chips in with how many pages it is for THEM.
