I kind of see logic or the laws of nature as being "higher forces," but I can't bring myself to believe in sky wizards, ghosts, time travel, psychic powers, and the like.
As a philosophy major, I think something dissuading me from the religious persuasion is that most attempts to define/describe God are either different kinds of logical games (God = Beauty; this is what beauty is; therefore, god is // God = Perfection; this is what perfection is; etc // God = Nature, Light, Truth, etc etc) or completely illogical ones (The Bible says that God is true, so he must be!).
The Problem of Evil, in particular, sways me from placing faith in a god like the Christian one.
