Hello Deism

That theism derived to define something that is not atheism.
Yeah, been thinking the same but I think it’s better to put something for those in between.

Beg to disagree, Atheism was born because of Theism not the other way around

Nope, I cant accept yours claim that "Most atheist are theist at first" unless you can give evidence

Our modern society was founded by Civilization that believes in God or Supreme being, the fact is that you cant even name any ancient civilization that influence our modern world that Does Not believe in Any God means Atheism was formed out of the idea of Theism

Suggesting people to kill themselves is NOT a very christian thing to do. But any thank you for agreeing that there is no way of confirming it

Its for people who don't exactly believed in the BIBLE, why would you based how good or bad an Act is from the teachings of Christianity if you dont believed in it?

Theres always a way to Proove it, but you need to believed in God and the teachings of Christianity First - not outside from it.

"All-Understanding" means God can and will forgive sin. The literal "hell" means eternal fire torture. An understanding God wont give a man infinite/eternal punishment for a finite sin.

Do you believe in what the Bible say? did you understand it or you just assume its teachings based on what youve heard?

can you give us the verse that says God is All understanding? coz if you cant then, you're rejecting a belief that you dont even understand.

@ Luci_morningstar & LogicPlease , your individual beliefs are same like parallel lines that will never ever meet each other... ^^

Hence, discussion regarding this matter is pointless and will lead to nowhere.

Just my opinion though. ^^

To the Modz .. ehem.. :P

struggling to get out of that indoctrination root is more specific. old habits dying hard type of thing.

I see. just basically wanting out. unsa may nakapalisud sa imung gusto Kar? external factors? or internal conflicts within you kay somehow you're like torn between holding on and letting go?

[noy]

But you dont believe it came from God?

well in general, everything in creation comes from god but if you're referring to religion as some sort of divine revelation, I've grown to be more skeptical about it. you see, religion for me is a perspective. I mean, can't you tell by the wide range of diversity between each religious view?

Do you Believe that God created the People for a purpose?

I'd like to think that the creator did so with a purpose yeah.

For me, Deism or Whatever you call it is the Transformation of a Religious Theist that Questions the teachings of his Religion. A person who saw the inconsistencies and Shortcomings or incorrect teachings of his Religion. So Deism is his way to consolidate his belief in God and the issues he found in his Religion

not in my case bro, at least.

Every belief to some extent is a make believe because no belief holds the absolutes.
if you think to believe in god is utterly stupid, same thing can be said to whatever it is that you believe.

I wonder which is cooler? an atheist, agnostic or deist?

naglibog gani ko kung asa ko magpa member

The Chinsese civilization is easily an Atheistic one, Buddhism, Taosim and Confusionsim DON'T have Gods. Easily within the category of a classical deffintion of Atheism. And China is the most populated with 1.3 Billion people. This is why you cant prove statistically that most atheist are theist at first.

hi bro, share lang ko. Buddhism is not atheistic. it is a religion that seeks for enlightenment, inner peace and whatnots. Yes Buddhism may not necessarily require a supreme being to be worshipped only because it is not the goal to start with, it seeks to reach nirvana or a certain degree of enlightenment(Buddha) to the point that one might consider oneself as divine which to some extent makes Buddhism more relatable to pantheism than that of atheism. heck Buddhism even believes in reincarnation nya atheistic na nuon. hahaha

Some Atheists do turn to Buddhism for meditation, calmness of the mind following the teachings of Buddha in its literal sense leaving the metaphysical beliefs behind but that's not traditional Buddhism is it? that's what they call Secular Buddhism and is only an emergence from the actual religion itself.
