Deism may be a cop-out now, but I'd be willing to bet that historically a lot of people used it to avoid the torture chamber.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
