Hi marmalade ........
.. I feel like I have to reach for the dictionary, google things, and search Wiki every time I read one of your posts...
... but unfortunately (or fortunately) I am lazy.
As a devout agnostic .... for me ... theistic gods are out. Not exactly sure putting "pan" in front of something, how it changes the meaning. pan - "all of the parts or relating to the whole"?
Nevertheless, the only deistic god that makes sense regarding the evidence and rationale (for me) would be a god as part of the universe (in us all etc). Not necessarily intelligent, but ordered (sort of; and if not, intelligent and not ordered). Oh what the hell...I don't really know.
If you have a label for this type of belief I would appreciate it.
in the mean time, yours faithfully, a panagnostic
