I believe in God – He is incorporeal, and supreme – there is no trinity, or whatever. I believe that you don’t have to believe in Him to get to an afterlife – all that matters is HOW you conduct yourself in this life. I believe that he LOVES everyone – regardless if you’re an atheist, Muslim, Christian, homosexual or not, or whatever.
However, I don’t believe in Jesus. I see him as a historical figure, and that’s all it is for me.
What are my beliefs called? I’m kind of sick of having to tell people my religious beliefs “I believe in God but I’m not affiliated with a religion or a faith.” It’s a bit of a hassle.

What Is That Thing Called When You Believe In God But Don’t Affiliate With A Religion?

It sounds like you may be a Deist.That’s a fairly broad group thaugh, and there are some grey areas. Best if you read up on it and decide for yourself if the term fits you.
Of course, calling yourself a Deist usually means having to explain what that means anyway. So it doesn’t make that part any easier.
Non believer and lost……is it any wonder that hell will be overflowing? We don’t get to dictate the conditions for GOD as far as faith, belief, the afterlife, and how to get to Heaven or hell. We follow His Instructions From His Inspired Word. 2 Corinthians 4 (Amplified Bible) 3But even if our Gospel (the glad tidings) also be hidden (obscured and covered up with a veil that hinders the knowledge of God), it is hidden [only] to those who are perishing and obscured [only] to those who are spiritually dying and veiled [only] to those who are lost.
John 18 (Amplified Bible) 9Thus what He had said was fulfilled and verified, Of those whom You have given Me, I have not lost even one.
John 3 (Amplified Bible) 16For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten ([a]unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.
Luke 19 (Amplified Bible) 10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.
Hebrews 10 (Amplified Bible) 25Not forsaking or neglecting to assemble together [as believers], as is the habit of some people, but admonishing (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more faithfully as you see the day approaching.
Isaiah 5 (Amplified Bible) 14Therefore Sheol (the unseen state, the realm of the dead) has enlarged its appetite and opened its mouth without measure; and [Jerusalem’s] nobility and her multitude and her pomp and tumult and [the drunken reveler] who exults in her descend into it.
Mark 9 (Amplified Bible) 48Where their worm [[a]which preys on the inhabitants and is a symbol of the wounds inflicted on the man himself by his sins] does not die, and the fire is not put out.
