The author’s blithe ignorance of the religious ideology that is deism automatically invalidates the entire premise of this post.

The very definition of Deism (and growing derivations like Pandeism) is in the absolutely non-interfering nature of God, for the Deistic Creator did things right the first time out, and has no need for constant tinkering around with the defects of an incompetent Creation. A God that interferes at all is theistic, and that is by definition the difference between Deism and theism (and of all subsets of Deism like Pandeism, and subsets of theism like panentheism and polytheism). So why not call this theory what it is, “Moral Theism”? Well, duh, because that makes is sound like a good and defensible thing. Well what it’s not is Deism, and it’s a lie, a contrived, propaganda-driven lie, to say that it is any such thing. Indeed, this seems as much intended to demonize a growing revival of Deism as to mischaracterise the theism on display in this theory.

Myth #6: Christianity produces moral individuals.

Myth #7: Jesus existed.
