Isn’t pantheism the same thing as atheism?

[Ferrocyanide]

There is no "standard" definition of God.  A Pantheist does not believe in the Christian God, or the Hebrew God, or Norse Gods, or any standard superhuman concept of God.

Pantheism isn't that far different from "a reverence for nature".  It sees divine in the connections between all things, and sees intelligence as a particularly special expression of the universe.

Whether a Pantheist adds other attributes to the Universe such as "it listens to me", or "it responds to desires and prayer" is beyond the requirements of being a Pantheist.  As I said, some may have New Age ideas given by woo-peddlers such as Eckhart Tolle, but not all.

I agree.
A god is many things to many people.
One guy says that it is a brain and transcends nature.
Another guy says he is love.
Another guy says he is peace.
Another guy says that we are all pieces of the god and all together, we are the god.

The list goes on.

I think this happens because no observation is made. There is just a vague concept.

For example, if a person is walking around the forest, they might encounter a tree.
This tree might have a certain fruit.
The fruit has a roundish shape and is orange so he decides to call it an orange.
If another guy calls this fruit by another name, it doesn’t matter since it is possible for both to observe the same fruit and these 2 people can synchronize.

They write a report about this plant. They bring a sample to their homebase. It gets cataloged and other experts look into as well.
The word orange gets added to your dictionaries, encyclopedias, with pictures.

There is no confusion about what an orange is, even when thousands of years have past.
Everyone, from multiple generations synchronize as to what an orange is.

But when it comes to gods, people can’t synchronize, since no observation is being made.
