Your religion, why you are not a Zurvanist?

You are either an atheist or a theist, in both cases, you can be also a Zurvanist, if you believe in the God, as an incorporeal and unlimited being then it can be Zurvan (Time and Space), and if you don't believe in the God then you can't deny the existence of Zurvan (concept of time and space), it can be said that our material world was created by this conception, the fact is that time is ruling the universe, a famous Zurvanist (Dahriyyun in the Islamic times), Omar Khayyam says heaven is each moment and location (time and space) that you are in peace and joy, some poems by Khayyam (English Translation):

The only constant is time’s passage
Which is the same for both fool and sage
To young and old time’s only message
Engage in joy, put away your rage
From the unknown set foot upon the stage
And leaving this cage one day is your wage.

and
 
The only secret that you need to know
The passage of time is a one way flow
If you understand, joyously you’ll grow
Else you will drown in your own sorrow

This is some hundreds years older than Sufism.

You can be also an agnostic, it is not important to know whether the God exists or not, but the time exists, in fact it is possible to imagine everything, except the time, couldn't be existed, something is impossible for humans to know that you want to imagine it without the time, there is just one thing which doesn't grow old and no one can change it, you can call it the god but that is the time.

Originally posted by Pytheus Belief requires thinking about god.   Not thinking about god is an absence of belief.   Atheism is an absence of belief in god.   Strong agnosticism seems simply to be atheism.

I think it is more difficult to believe there is no God (Creator) than that there is, Strong agnosticism can be said to be the same ignorantism, when you see a lighted lamp, you have to believe there is a reason for it, if you say I don't see electricity so I dont think or care about it then there won't be any difference between you and those who lived thousands years ago, you should think! You can say I know nothing about electricity or the God but ignorance has no benefit for you!
