Does this sentient god of yours interact with humanity in any way or does it have any effect on the universe?
I have a lot of ideas on the nature of god. I don't think god ever interacted with humans though.
Then why call it god?
Why not just call it "nothing" if it doesn't interact with humans and he made it up? And this is why I just don't get deists.
Because that's the exact opposite of the being I believe in. The idea would be better described as Everything.
As long as you understand I have the freedom to believe that's fine with me. And I'm not really a deist. Deists use the words reason and logic to describe their belief. I have no such delusions.
This is stupid
