And if anybody believes the universe is god, then by definition the texts and scriptures of almost all major religions are false, and before claiming "god" pantheists would still need to demonstrate a sentient existence before the big bang or the universe or whatever they presume the creator to be.
I disagree. I think pantheism makes a lot of sense. When one ascribes to everything a divine nature one cancels the meaning of the word 'divine' altogether, for there can't be such a quality as to describe everything, except existence. It's really, just semantics. Pantheism seems to be the most rational form of belief there is.
It was a play on words. That's why.
