I too think deism is still wishful thinking, the same goes for agnostic theism (without religious beliefs), but these people are still not hurting anyone else
How exactly can someone be a theist without religious beliefs?
Well you can believe that a god exists and not follow any religion, a lot of young people have quit the superstition of religion but still have some kind of belief. As far as I know, there is nothing stopping you, you can believe in a higher force and not follow any specific religion, no dogmas, it sounds better than religion anyway.
