The thing I wonder about deists is whether they're referring to "some sentient being" that created the universe, or some sort of traditional God. For example, our reality could be a simulation run on a computer by some asswipe. Would believing that make someone a deist? You could even maybe refer to this guy as all powerful with regard to our reality, but there's no reason to expect him to hold the same power in his own.

I understand the feeling that something made our reality (although I can't see any evidence for that conclusion yet) but what I don't get is assigning a bunch of characteristics to it as well. I'm not sure if deists go in for that or not. Probably either way though, team D and team A are exactly the same in practical terms so I don't draw much of a distinction
