Could you explain why? I don’t see why it should, really.
Well, in one sense that is shallow, what would an agnostic person + (some other religion mean)?
Maybe more deeper (?): it seems like some religions like Buddhism, which accepts other practices, would be understood to accept other practices. So it’s not clear if a Buddhist who selected multiple options had different beliefs, or was just very being very comprehensive and communicative like a good EA.

Uh that specifically? Engaging in practices and being open to the existence of the divine but ultimately not being convinced. This is not actually a strange or uncommon position. (What if there are a lot of statisticians who are trying to make their work easier by asking questions that make the world seem simpler than it is.)

That just sounds like a totally bizarre way to answer the question as I understood it (and possibly as it was stated, I don’t remember the details). I wouldn’t expect a buddhist with no other affiliations to answer that way. I don’t believe the ambiguity is there.
