This one has been going in my kind for a while so I’m just asking out

Is it weird for a person to have their own religious beliefs system? Like they don’t adhere to a said religion and just has theirs own beliefs system , for example : a bit of Christian and paganist beliefs that someone personally upholds but doesn’t adhere to neither of these religions, just their own beliefs system

    I never really thought about it before but semantically ‘atheist’ only means ‘no belief in God or gods’. Technically it shouldn’t preclude belief in spirits or other supernatural elements. I suppose the closest thing to complete disbelief in the supernatural is ‘skeptic’ but even that’s up for interpretation. Do satanism and humanism explicitly rule out any supernatural?
