Defending Pantheism

[Aegon]

I think of pantheism as a halfway house between theism and atheism.  It's for people who are still trying to work out some system of apologetics for a God-concept because they still think they need to worship something.  Since the whole universe has all power, by definition, then you are already part way there!  Never mind that when people think of God, they think of a conscious and willful being with superpowers. It's also a kind of power trip, as Aegon pointed out.  You can be God too!  Finally, pantheism assumes some kind of unity in the universe which is not apparent.  Instead, what we find are discrete objects crashing into each other or competing with each other.  You can't possibly take all sides.  "To protect the fox is to harm the rabbits."

According to Wikipedia:

"Pantheism is the belief that reality is identical with divinity, or that all-things compose an all-encompassing, immanent god. Pantheist belief does not recognize a distinct personal anthropomorphic god and instead characterizes a broad range of doctrines differing in forms of relationships between reality and divinity."

As for me, I haven't seen anything yet which is worthy of worship, although some people sure try to make such things.  To worship anything undermines the whole skeptical project in my mind.  The reality seems to be that there are pluses and minuses to everything.  Nothing is worthy of worship, so it's a mistake to worship anything. This perspective is consistent with atheism in my opinion.

Can you define worship for me? A classic argument is that we all worship something, or multiple things. . If not God, then money. If not money, then nature. If not nature, then ... etc etc
