As I understand it, your belief means that there is an all-encompassing force which pervades the universe and keeps the plates spinning, rather than a fat old man sitting on a cloud eternally battling haemorrhoids, am I correct? Please correct me if I've got it wrong.
Still, I have a question. Why do you feel there has to be an intelligence driving the universe? Why can it not just be a result of natural processes acting out as a result of entropy?

Oh gnoes!  Fluffy medieval philosophy on the way!
