I think if you need a funny feeling inside just get something tangible like a vibrator.
You're kidding right? It's a lot more reasonable to think there may be a supreme creator of the universe who doesn't intervene with our affairs than to claim a super old book is the absolute truth and leave the problem of evil unsolved. The only difference from deists and atheists, from my experience, is that the former believe there's some sort of creator of the universe, but both have a tendency to be less dogmatic, less fundamentalist and less idiotic. Maybe it's because my girlfriend is a deist, but I don't have a problem with it.
It's actually less reasonable because there is no motivating factor to make you believe in a god. You have absolutely nothing to go by. It's like you are trying to be more logical than theists but you just don't get there. It's a complete fail.
I understand why some theists believe. They are indoctrinated and or they just don't research it much but they have something tangible making them believe whether it is other people or a false book of shit.
Desists have nothing motivating them to believe other than stupidity. There is no fear of hell motivating you, no retarded ancient book, no church, nothing.
To help put it in perspective, I think I'll become a Leprechaunist. I just believe they left pots of gold out there and then went on their merry way. It just makes me feel warm and fuzzy thinking this.
