What religion does this sound like?

I have certain beliefs but I can't find other people that feel the same or find the name for it. Well, here is a list of them:

1. There is something out there bigger than all of us. If you want to call it a god, then ok.

2. I do enjoy some of the writings of the bible. I do not believe it is the word of God.

3. All living things have a spirit that watches over them. There are good and bad spirits.

4. I believe in use of spells for healing and protection, I however do not practice any spell casting. I prefer to leave that up to the professionals.

6. I believe in reincarnation.

These are not things I just grabbed from different religions and glued together. They are what I actually believe to be truth. Two of them just because of things that have happened to me in my life personally.

Sounds a bit like this: Agnostic theism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

With a few added bits from other areas.

I agree with Karma on the agnostic viewpoint, in addition to having elements of deism, buddhism, and wiccan teachings.

I also agree with Karma. One thing you might like to try is going to a Unitarian Universalist church if there is one near you. There more than likely would be others there who hold the same beliefs that you do, and with whom you could speak and share your beliefs.

Yes, you would fit into the Unitarian Universalists, IF of course you don't mind others having different beleifs, some may beleive more of one thing, and others none of the others. But they are accepting of all basicly relgious teachings
