I first created my youtube account name, ThatOneQuestion, with a purpose. I didn't really have a good way to express that reason, really, and didn't bother with it until I decided to try and make a "video intro" that explained a little bit about that. So, I've only recently articulated that question into something more meaningful and thought provoking, but I think it does a great job.
"The concept of our world view is founded on the answer we define for one question: What is religion?"
I believe that when you answer that question you will have a deeper understanding of your own concept of religion. That may or may not help you with what you currently believe, but at the very least, that will help you define yourself.
If you find that religion is some kind of truth about reality, then it will take you down a certain group of explanatory terms to define reality.
If you find that religion is something like a psychological aspect to human nature, then that conclusion will similarly guide you down specific paths.
