Aah, the loss of human identity, i've touched on this subject before. Here's a little short essay I wrote about it a while ago.

I've never really considered my beliefs part of one religion, and that has always been confusing. Religion is a basis for faith, the most contradicting form of proof in our modern day society, and like a political party is just a compilation of ideas to help people organize what they believe the point of everything is.
The problem with all of this is that the idea of a religion has changed to something other than this. You're forced to be either in a religion or an atheist. Then you can obviously see thee contradiction here. Religion is to faith as political parties are to political ideas. People have lost the ability to have faith in their own ideas, to believe that there is something other than praying to a G-d that has not given any proof of it's (I'm using it to indicate no specific gender) existence in 2000 years! (Islam, 1500 yrs). People no longer realize that faith is a personal issue and that following a book that you're supposed blindly believe will not bring you relief from the fear of nothing after death.

So I guess my personal belief is considered atheism, though i find no point in identifying as an atheist. What is the point in having no faith, no hope for something better, in believing that after life is everlasting nothingness. This goes against a basic human instinct, to be afraid of the unknown, and it is impossible to imagine nothing, so it is the unknown. So, there is no point in believing ultimately in science, for it gives nothing in return. Then what do you do?
