What do you think about Deism?

"Deism is a philosophical belief that posits God created the universe but does not intervene in its ongoing operations. Deists generally reject supernatural aspects of religion like miracles and divine revelation, emphasizing instead reason and observation of the natural world as sources of knowledge about God and morality." -Google lol.

They believe God is not active in this world but still created it. I believe that the bible states satan is ruler of this world which means God is testing us to see if we will be faithful as satan tries to destroy everything. The bible does not state satan as the absolute ruler because when all is revealed at the end of times, Jesus, will come return with judgement upon the nations for their beliefs and reign the earth for 1000 years.

I believe that the divine energy that created everything in within all things. We are all what the universe is doing right now at a certain moment in time, we've just forgotten it because we as that divine energy we are doing so much at once. So I'd say I believe the opposite of deism. God is not uninvolved in my opinion, it's more like everything being made from nothing, all at the same time; but also happening and infinite amount of different times and different ways

That is silly like building lego car but not playing with it! No sane person would accept that god made a world for no purpose. If he had a purpose he created. If not he would not make anything.

It' basically theism, for shy people.
