A big appetite? A big ego? A big pair of sneekers?

I have no religion except...happiness maximization. Everything reduces to that.

Agnostic.
And I'm continually surprised by the number of athiests who seem to find it necessary to harangue me with with hopes they can convert me to the "dark side."
Were I to chose my own religion, I would select Shinto.
Certain places do have an aura.

They probably just want you admit that you must have a guess one way or another (which may or may not be true for you.) Most atheists are actually also agnostics; this just means they aren't certain but guess that God as described by mainstream religion probably doesn't exist. I've met a number of self-described "agnostics" who are really essentially agnostic atheists, but refuse to make the leap to atheism because of some kind of stigma attached to that word. Atheism doesn't require faith or absolute certainty, nor does it require one to dismiss all possible imaginable conceptions of God (most of us are perfectly ok with abstract/metaphorical gods.)
If you are so uncertain about God that you have absolutely no guess whatsoever as to whether or not he exists, then yes, you are agnostic, but that term is not reserved especially for people who agree with you on that--remember that "agnostic" just means "without knowledge."If you could be anything you want, I bet you'd be disappointed--am I right?
