Exactly, and this deists are not people that bother me and as a matter of fact I respect their view, even though there is no evidence it still is more plausible than the theistic religious view. I too have a problem with people that are like 'Oh my god you don't believe in god? This isn't possible how do you not believe if I know he exists?' - This is super annoying
Indeed it is interesting how some of those people can take an approach that they "know" (gnostic) and then fall back on "gotta have faith" or "cause bible" which is far from a point of speaking in terms of knowing since that doesn't give a good enough reason to consider oneself "gnostic." I'm not a big fan of the gnostic position.
