Uhm that makes no sense... if you dont believe in God, then you're an atheist (not a religion), if you're not sure of God or dont believe it can be proven one way or another you're an agnostic, neither is a religion... and you cant really be both at the same time

***wats the religion when you dont know if there is a God or not??***

That would be ALL of them...

Since all religious views partaining to the existence of god(s) are 'beliefs' ...taken on faith, and cannot be proven, therefore, cannot be KNOWN.

But you're probably asking about the theological views that ENCOMPASS mankind's inability to KNOW these things... that would be Agnosticism. Its not a religion (thought it DOES get lumped in there often), its just a standpoint on the concept of deities, ultimate truths, etc. That these concepts are ultimately unknowable, and that it is impossible to prove or disprove the existence of deities.

Now that the smartasses have had their fill...

You're looking for the word Agnostic.

Agnosticism is when you believe that their is/are a higher being(s), but you're unsure of what you believe said higher power(s) to be.

That is a true statement. That indeed is the definition of agnosticism...

No... it isn't...

That is a rough definition of a subcategory of Agnosticism, called Agnostic Theism.

COMMON TYPES OF AGNOSTICISM

Strong agnosticism — The view that the question of the existence or nonexistence of an omnipotent God and the nature of ultimate reality is unknowable by reason of our natural inability to verify any experience with anything but another subjective experience.

Soft Agnosticism — The view that the existence or nonexistence of God or gods is currently unknown but is not necessarily unknowable, therefore one will withhold judgment until/if more evidence is available.

Apathetic Agnosticism — The view that there is no proof of either the existence or nonexistence of God or gods, but since any God or gods that may exist appear unconcerned for the universe or the welfare of its inhabitants, the question is largely academic anyway.

Agnostic Theism — The view of those who do not claim to know existence of God or gods but still believe in such an existence.

Agnostic Atheism — The view of those who do not know of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods, and do not believe in them.

Ignosticism — The view that a coherent definition of God must be put forward before the question of the existence of God can be meaningfully discussed. If the chosen definition isn't coherent, the ignostic holds the noncognitivist view that the existence of God is meaningless or empirically untestable. A.J. Ayer, Theodore Drange, and other philosophers see both atheism and agnosticism as incompatible with ignosticism on the grounds that atheism and agnosticism accept God exists as a meaningful proposition which can be argued for or against.
