I believe that an infinite mind exists and that that infinite mind should get whatever it wants and does get whatever it wants and it's morally justified because classical utilitarian is true, that infinite mind is a 'utility monster' and I bite the bullet on that thought experiment.

I don't follow a religion and I wouldn't say that I believe that God intervenes. That's why I consider myself to be a deist. To me God 'intervening' is just the universe playing with itself. It's somewhat pantheistic and I wouldn't call it incompatible with deism.
After all, there is a sense of 'deism' that just means belief in a deity. And that's the key point. I believe in a deity. But I'm also without that extra stuff like following a religion or having a God separate to the universe that intervenes in it, etc.
If you don't believe that god intervenes why do you constantly insist that he does? Look, face facts here, your posts here make it abundantly obvious that you're a variety of protestant christian and I would guess of the fundagelical persuasion. No amount of denial will change facts in evidence.
