A recent survey on religion shows there are 34
million Americans who are classified as "Nones", that is they do
not embrace any of the "revealed" religions and the vast
majority of them are not Atheists. In actuality, the vast
majority of the "Nones" are actually Deists!
The survey shows a giant step forward for Deism in the fact that it
actually uses the word "Deist" and for the very significant raw
numbers it shows as representing the number of people who are
Deists. In reality, the number of Deists is actually
higher than the survey shows because the survey uses an outdated
definition of Deist. For a more accurate definition please see
our Deism
Defined page.

Why Deism? I discovered I was a Deist . . .
and much more!
How I Became a Deist
by M. S.
To tell you the truth, I
don't know exactly how I came to know about Deism. I do
remember that I was on the internet doing research on many
scriptures that I have always had a hard time believing in by
"faith". While searching, I found scriptures that I had never
noticed before. Mainly because most churches that I had
attended NEVER discussed such subjects as child abuse, murder,
genocide, or many other ungodly acts in the bible. Scriptures that I
had NEVER heard read from the pulpit! At
first I was sad and mad at the same time by these horrific
scriptures. I was disappointed by what I felt to be intentional
deception from "revealed religions." They have no answers, so they
will tell you to pray about your questions and ask for revelation.
Just believe and have "faith"! I wanted more. I wanted truth.
BLIND faith wasn't working for me any longer! I wanted
answers!!!!
Somehow I ended up on Deism.com. Deism
described the God of my dreams. The God that I can honestly
say that I love! I actually get teary-eyed at times when I think of
how awesome God Is. He wants us to live life. As I wrote in my
article "Will The Real God Please Stand Up", (December issue of
THINKonline!) "The real God would never cause death to any
living creation, out of hatred, rage, vengeance."
I am free. Free indeed! I am grateful that I finally found the
truth...or maybe the truth found me. All I know is that is how
I discovered that I am a Deist. My Creator God made it possible
for me to live in a beautiful World, in a awesome Galaxy, that
is located in HIS incomprehensible Universe. I can live with
that...truly live!!
THINK, LOOK, LISTEN !

Obama is making the mixing of church and state
worse than ever before.
Obama supporters forget that when all is said and done, Obama is just another politician. This article shows he's proving that he is nothing but a politician by doing more than any other president to mix religion and government, especially through giving tax-dollars to religious organizations.
