Wtf...
lol, you're trying to figure out how I know the software's behavior, and you can't even figure out how to post.
I don't know why I bother giving a dolt like you any attention at all.

If -you- define theism as a religion personally (and that's fine) then ofc there can be no theism without religion, it would be tautology.
Religion - the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.
Theism -belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in one god as creator of the universe, intervening in it and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures.
How is the second definition not included in the first?
It is not as a religion that theism is defined as, but as a form of religion.
You've conveniently left out the other denotations of religion.
What a dishonest asshole.
