Hmmm...I don't know about that. You're welcome to try now though.

Thanks. I actually went from conservative evangelical Christian, to Charismatic Christian, to toying around with buddhism, zen, pantheism, then agnostic/atheist.

Hi Detger,

I've explored pantheism, mainly as a result of reading Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch. I am actually still open to it. However, since there is no concrete evidence for it either, I just default to withholding belief until something about it convinces me.

But yes, if I were a theist, I'd probably be a pantheist.

Well, I personally want to draw my own conclusions and not rely on what others think -- not to say that yours is not a valid position -- I mean, if that works for you, sure go ahead -- but it's not for me, not anymore.

An interesting read...however, this seems to be a simple deist position.

As I understand it, in that view, I may or may not believe in god, and it doesn't really matter to him/her/it.

Not a trap. I thought the way you did. Sometimes, I still do, but now am challenging that position :)

"It is not my approval, though. It is God's."

And I suppose he whispered that in your ear?
