WHAT IS DEISM?
DEISM
a belief but not a religion, believed in god or creator based on nature relied on science and philosophy through logic and reason.
a belief of an individual freethinker, which has own personal points of view, rejects the revelation as a source of religious knowledge and assert that reason and observation of natural world.
The methods that defines deism and deist thought. In deism, we are expected to provide our logic and reasons, we are not simply assert a belief or disbelief without logical reasoning.
DEISM based on nature relied on Science & Philosophy through logic reasoning.
Deist observe the universe and propose explanations for those aspects not yet resolved. we call these ¨ Hypotheses¨ when proven, they are known as ¨ Theories¨
Methods to Identify
1) ideas/evidence proven true = Theory
¨ Hypotheses¨ all the data's (evidence) gathered through research and observation.
2) ideas/evidence not proven true = Hypothesis/Speculation
¨Hypotheses¨ all data´s (evidence) gathered through research and observation.
3) ideas/evidence neither proven true nor false, therefore its called unknown.
¨ Hypotheses¨ all data's (evidence) gathered through research and observation.
Today deism is considered to exist in the classical and modern forms, where the classical view takes what is called a cold approach by asserting the non intervention deity in the natural behaviour of the created universe, while the modern deist formulation can be either warm ¨citing an involved deity¨ or cold deity ¨citing an ¨uninvolved deity¨ these lead to many subdivisions of modern deism.
