Friendly Atheism

[mcc1789]

Well, it pertains to whether theism could be rational I'd say, so not yet.

I responded to a couple of points: 

That in a major portion of theology, existence and consciousness are not prior one to the other. 

That classical theology is different from pantheism.

But I don't have the energy at the moment to argue the whole case -- it's an enormously big subject.

All right.

For clarity:

Pantheism = God and universe, one and the same
Panentheism = universe is a manifestation of divine energy/God but is not all of God

The way you and Wikipedia explain it doesn't seem much different from classical theism. I've heard that it means everything is inside of God (like Berkeley's view that all things are just God's ideas).
