Amoral Inaction

[corndog36]

I don't see all that much difference between theism and deism. Religions were created to provide answers to questions that "science" couldn't answer. For early man that was pretty much every question in their lives, so they needed gods that could account for everything that happened in their lives. Now that science has answered most of those questions, the old religions are, for many people, becoming harder to swallow. Deism offers answers to the final 2 big questions; The origin of the universe, and what happens to us when we die. But, Deism is not a formal religion, it is a personal belief that, maybe, a supernatural entity caused the big bang, and maybe there is something after this life. This idea of amoral inaction is one of the problems with religions that claim a benevolent god, but cannot be applied to deism which makes no such claims.
