Deism

Tom Paine:
Its creed is pure and sublimely simple. It believes in God and there it rests. It honours Reason [and] it avoids all presumptuous beliefs and rejects, as the fabulous inventions of men, all books pretending to revelation.
Sounds pretty good to me. I've never been entirely comfortable with atheism, but I can't stand structured religion either.

More on Paine and deism here.
