The deist god is one who appears exactly like no god at all. Nor is the deists god anything like any of the "gods" described by men before. One could call it a reaction to the ever decreasing domain of the divine. They don't put their chips in with obvious bullshit(debatable), but they haven't written off the notion entirely. That being said, I've only met one deist that made my skin crawl (on these forums no less). There was a moment in my life where I was very much trending towards deism, but ultimately, I couldn't take that final step and call the undefinable or the unknown "god".
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
