Smart, blessed, lucky, missed a bullet...I dunno.
Not a follower of others...*shrug*...not a joiner...
Ahead of the curve was a good one.

As an agnostic and ant-theist I'd call them intelligent - the fact that people want to tie themselves to these silly archaic obviously man-made and troublesome tribal constructions in the 21st century, is baffling.

I don't like the words "ahead" of the curve. I like the word "lucky", just lucky, because that is how I feel. It implies nothing special about me. I don't like missing the bullet. Because I was hit just like everybody else.

They are a spiritual or religious atheist.

Buddhism is religious atheism. It happens.

Oh, I misread the question. They are called "spiritual but not religious."

To be spiritual means you have your own ideas.

we can be a believer in something over nothing and not be religious or spiritual. I think.

Default What do you call someone who believes in "god" but not religion?

Set free from an unnecessary burden, perhaps?
