If you profess a belief in any established religion, you are welcome in Scouting. If you profess no belief in any established religion, but are willing to go so far as to say that you think that there must be some kind of power beyond the material, one that does not operate on the material plane but that has rules that we are accountable to, you pass. Even if that power is not incarnate in any kind of "God" and if you're not too sure about the rules. You are acceptable if you've made up your own religion and think that God resides in tree in your front yard. About the only thing that won't fly is that if you definitely state that "there is no God" and that there's no such thing as a supernatural power.
