I'm going to have to side with the hoary hobbit on this one (with respect to the analogy).

A theistic religion might satisfy the criteria for being a philosophy, but theism (see note below) doesn't, as (like atheism) it only represents an answer to the question "Do you believe any gods exist?".

Dictionary.com Wrote:1.
the belief in one God as the creator and ruler of the universe, without rejection of revelation ( distinguished from deism ).
2.
belief in the existence of a god or gods ( opposed to atheism ).

I think I might have gotten confused... I thought that the opposite was meant. As in Theism = philo because off=tv channel... in which what I said would have been appropriate. However.. I don't it is anymore. I'm really hyper.
