I think we don't really agree on the definitions.
Deism: belief in a creator who may or may not intervene in the universe. Simply put, any kind of belief in a creature.
Theism: belief in a creator who intervenes in the universe.
It's clear that theism belongs to deism. There are of course definitions of deism (which exclude any divine intervention) that clash with theism. Under these definitions, I am not a deist, OFC.
But that doesn't concern me all that much at present. Are you now of the position that your stupid fucking god may not have intervened?
Buh-bye islam......
Quote:Nice dodging, Nudger. You're a very funny person.Am I a funny person, though? That seems to imply that I'm a person, who exists. What do you mean defend? I'm pointing out as a matter of fact that absence of evidence is evidence of absence, though..as rightly pointed out by many other people, not you..., who didn't make the specifically idiotic claim that you did...it's not proof of absence. Do you disagree?
Are you going to defend your rule "absence of evidence is evidence of absence"...... or just stop being disingenuous yourself..?
I say there's no real evidence that you ever sucked my dick...but is that evidence that you never sucked my dick? You tell me. I await your soaring rejection of the notion that you have no evidence that you've never put your lips, on my penis.
Yum...yum...yum.
