Well, that's fair. I like to consider myself a curiosity.
Feelings of mystic connection and unity made me a pantheist many years ago. A couple of months ago I decided that an emotional connection to the universe which could probably be traced back to a mental anomaly in my brain does not prove the existence of God. So I became an agnostic again. Hasn't stopped me from experiencing the feelings, but now I don't put them in a religious context. If I feel a "presence," I no longer thing it's the Holy Spirit, but instead connect it with elements of my mind. Mainly Bethany Davies.
