Only Tool, King Crimson, The Mars Volta and Genesis. Most prog is kinda sshit, anyways.

I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing

Not true at all. You just have to have an open mind.

Meh. I'd rather listen to the Ramones than Rush.

Punk is boring and repetitive. I absolutely HATE it.
But to each his own. It isn't my place to judge.
Although I do recognize its influence, and the emotion that's involved in its creation. There's definitely devotion in punk; it's just not the type of devotion I like.

A lot of the stuff you listed I wouldn't consider prog rock, but it is good. My favorites from your list are Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Traffic, Frank Zappa, E.L.O. and the Moody Blues.

They have their roots in progressive.
Actually, most of their stuff is KRAUTROCK (at least their pre-Robots stuff), which is a sub-genre of progressive.

But they're not progressive.

We've seen how sick wind blows
But I've got your bovine eyes
I'll love you like I love you,
Then I'll die.
