What is a religion but a choice in how to handle reality.

You live by religion, formally known and named or not. There can be no reward for not choosing to handle reality.
What I was saying in this was that there is no such thing as not choosing. It is only an issue of the definition of religion.

"No choice" can not actually exist, thus making the relevance of God in the picture void. If "don't choose" is your option, then God's existence is irrelevant and changes nothing. The original list included one "dont choose" option. Any tributary circumstances are irrelevant, thus adding another that states "no choice, but..." is actually the same impossibility as already stated.

To clear up the matter any further, we would have to bump the level of this discussion above this thread. In reality, the concept of no God (once you understand who God is) is a logical absurdity, but that discussion wasn't the intent on this thread.
