    Interesting find

    Theists generally believe that god interacts in the universe, from what I've read. "belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in one god as creator of the universe, intervening in it and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures."

    Interesting find

    Came across this article recently, as well as a couple previous ones like it: https://www.npr.org/2024/01/24/1226371734/religious-nones-are-now-the-largest-single-group-in-the-u-s Agnostics, atheists and religious nones. Interestingly enough, this part sticks out to me: " Religious ‘nones’ are...

    Is Deism rational?

    Read this today on the Deism subreddit: "I’m the type of Deist who understands that utilizing descriptive or prefatory adjectives in such a way as to alter or expand Deism doesn’t change a thing. -- Deism is NOT a religion, and negates any requirement to possess one. -- Deism is not made up...

    Is Deism rational?

    An interesting sentiment. And yes, of course. One should always attempt to be moral.

    Look who has recently got baptised in the river Thames

    Great for him.. I guess. He is nothing but a tool though, and I could care less what he does personally.

    Religious none? What do you call this?

    Yes, I deem it necessary sometimes to have a label to interact with others, even if that label is "none." Even further, I see the atheist conclusion as being an answer to the god question, and that's really about it. I feel "agnostic," is a it more open-minded like I may have said earlier...

    Religious none? What do you call this?

    Read this today online: "There is an arrogance to being absolutely certain about something that can never be proven. A religious person might believe absolutely in their unprovable god and would call it Faith. But an atheist, by definition, has no Faith. So being certain of the nonexistence of...

    Is Deism rational?

    Lots of things could be considered not rational. I don't necessarily believe that the concept of human equality and human flourishing isn't rational. But, I think Deistic beliefs are a bit more rational than most world religions if you are talking a simple concept of "god."

    Is Deism rational?

    I am a humanist, so embracing others and treating others well is at the top of my moral values. I think "Deism," technically allows for this. Many religions, however, by their nature, don't. I don't think I would call myself a Deist however. I am merely expressing different thoughts I have had...

    Is Deism rational?

    Even though I am technically an atheist, I started out somewhat in my spiritual deconstruction as a Deist. It makes me beg the question, is Deism rational compared to Theism/other religions? Also, I would be interested in hearing from other Deists. I'm at the point in my journey where even...

    Deism?

    That seems to sum up Deism pretty well.

    Religious none? What do you call this?

    What conclusions have you come to, if any?

    Religious none? What do you call this?

    Thank you. yes I remember reading about his concepts of god awhile back.

    Religious none? What do you call this?

    I sort of already established that I don't believe.

    Deism?

    I do still find the concept of Deism quite interesting though. I do think there is a bit of merit in belief in seeing "patterns and design," to things in nature and the universe. So in this sense, the God or higher power of Deism is somewhat believable.
