I'd have a one on one debate and logical discussion on you on Deism vs religion. I think Deism is illogical. I was a Deist for five years.
I remember when you classified yourself as a deist, and you were no deist.
While you classified yourself as a deist, you constantly talked about your belief in a god that intervenes in the physical universe. Which is not deism. I called you out on it many times, and finally you admitted you were not a deist.
Deism is more logically supportable than theism. Especially the Abrahamic brands, yours included.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
