"as plenty of people without religion have beliefs". Wouldn't they be non-religious beliefs then?

As i've said, my pagan path is non-religious. Is that how you see it?

What about people who believe in spiritualism? Some are religious but many aren't.

It's crackers that humanism isn't featured on TftD. But that doesn't represent 'non belief'.
Of course it does not represent all non-faith beliefs, but  its basic premise that belief in a god is not necessary for a fulfilled life is similar.

As long as T4TD isn't exclusive to one party, why would it bother me who was on it?

Err yes! But then it's an opinion that be backed up.

Here is what I asked
'So here we have Rhiannon and I, both not religious, both not represented by humanism but ippy wants to ignore that. Why?'

And here is your response

'Looks to me you've got one of those off your trolley days N S.'
