I have a friend who's beliefs border on Deist. He and I have had several interesting chats about God on the occasion that it's come up between us, and while I can't say I agree with him on his views, it's a belief that I can respect and understand in these crazy modern times. My biggest peeve with Deism is the idea that a god would simply 'move on' or 'grow bored' with anything it had created; it's an attribution of human emotion to a decidedly non-human being and it doesn't seem to fit the standards of what being a god would entail, to me at least.
Still, like I said. I can understand and respect the concepts and I think if you feel you are Deist, that is perfectly fine.
