I'm currently working on a paper on Charles Darwin. I've come across a very interesting section of his autobiography where he's discussing his views on religion.
What my own views may be is a question of no consequence to anyone but myself. But, as you ask, I may state that my judgement often fluctuates... In my most extreme fluctuations I have never been an Atheist in the sense of denying the existence of a God. I think that generally (and more and more as I grow older, but not always), that an Agnostic would be the more correct description of my state of mind.I find this absolutely fascinating. Christian teaching taught me that Darwin was the father of Naturalism and with that comes Atheism (both, of course, being very, very dangerous). The way I have come to understand modern naturalist science seems to assume the same thing:

Pierre completed his 2nd paper in his class on Christianity and Science in Historical Perspective at Fuller and is working on his 3rd. I don't know where he has to go from his 2nd one, which I quote from his professor, "You're writing is flawless." Anyway, I thought he wrote some interesting thoughts on Kepler and his use of astrology...yes astrology and astronomy. Anyway, if you are interested, let me know, and I'll send it your way.

Today I was frustrated and stressed out about work, relationships, time, etc... I feel so inadequate at times (which is good for me to be humbled). Then I read a newsletter from a missionary friend who was stressed out about all the projects that "God" wanted her to do. That got me thinking about my own situation. First, in the big picture, is anything that I am doing going to be that important to be getting stressed over? Maybe if I changed my approach or attitudes on the matter, would I be feeling this anxiety? I don't know...I'm going to try it tomorrow. I'm going to begin tonight by thinking of ways to approach my day differently instead of dreading it. Secondly, I don't think the tasks put in front of me are anything that "God" wants me to be stressed over. He has given me a job, relationships, and time as a challenge as to see how I can creatively use what he has given me to accomplish them well, and find others to help me do them well. Besides, I'm sure God can find a way to accomplish His will, with or without me. I'd rather it be with, even if that does include failure on my part sometimes.
