Or, you could reply to the contents of the posts that you quote rather than creating much ado about nothing in slicing out the tiniest snippets for no reason other than avoiding to respond....while simultaneously seeming to respond.
Disingenuous? Glass houses EP, glass houses.
Deists don't use theists criteria for a god, so the fact that they do not meet the criteria of a theists god doesn't lead to them meaning nothing, they just don't mean the same thing..and whatever that other thing is, how it's described to you by the deist in question -not how it's defined by me- is what god means, to them. Your bias for theistic gods and god meanings leads you to conclude that a deistic god doesn't mean anything, when really it's just failed the theistic criteria you've applied, as would be expected of a deistic god.
