No, it's a matter of logic. If there is one true religion, shouldn't everybody be practicing it? Anything that isn't well-established is basically just a story that you made up because it sounds good to you. I really don't think you should be allowed to come up with a personal religion unless you've had some sort of encounter with God or something supernatural. There has to be a basis for your beliefs.
Personally, I'm either agnostic or atheist depending on how you look at the world. If you go by the idea that the perceptable world is the one and only world as far as you're considered, than I'm an atheist. If you go by the idea that the "thing-in-itself" (I wish I had a better word for this) is the real world, then God may or may not exist. Either way it isn't rational to factor God into your life.
