I am an ex-Christian. I gave up my Christian belief because of inconsistencies and blah blah blah long story.

Anyway, I still am a theist yet I can not fit my beliefs in a theist belief category. So I coined my own which is AUTHEISM. Autheism is a theist belief system that entitles a theist believer to a very subjective view of who God is to him. Since I believe that there is no absolute truth, the AUTHEIST is entitled to his abnormal subjectivity to his truth regarding his creator.

I will elaborate more on this next time when I have time.

I think that when most people think of Peganism they see 'The Craft'. What is your definition?

Paganism is the religion of our ancestors, inspired by Nature. It numbers about 5500 years in Ukraine. Many of those people were wise grass healers and possessed great spiritual powers, which made the Christians think of them to be "demons", "witches" and burn them alive, like in time of "Holy Inquisition". I believe that wizards still live among us. They can understand the language of Nature and foresee many things.
But all above is not "my definition", it's just some words impromptu.
Anyway, we have diverse religions here.

That's very good. I have my own "religion" that i created by taking things from various religions and philosophies which I call Integeria. I am integerian. I think it's good for people to take out what they believe and make it their own religion.

You worship mathematics? That would be a very "logical" religion. It makes more sense than worshipping some guy who may not have even existed, and if he did exist he lived so long ago that he really isn't worth discussing except in a historical context. Asking what he would do in our society is besides the point.

So does Autheism incorporate a mythology of the gods Aut and Asp? Does it include the lost land of Aspergia or its namesake Aspergian Island? For what sounds like theological relativism, the name has too much pizazz and implies specificity to the Spectrum.

I don't worship math. I'm more pantheistic in a sense. I got the name from the word "integer" meaning "whole".

I found the concepts on yoism(.)org very interesting.

"Uniting Atheist, Skeptic, Agnostic, Realist, Enlightenment, Humanist, Unitarian, Transcendentalist, Pantheist, and Deist systems of belief to create the World's First Open Source, Rational Religion.."

That I agree with. But some people think that reality itself is subjective, reacting to the perception of it. I think that reality is objective, and we just perceive it in our own way. I don't think our perception of it has any bearing on its reality or properties.
