Dear Dimmage,
Deists are just like those other Xians who don't believe in Jesus, like the Muslims and the Jews.
Deists believe in some form of a god, but not Jesus as a savior.
Next time you go shopping, pick up a couple of clues. They are ever so useful.

Darkmage, you've got it backward. Christians are a subset of deists, not the other way around. Deists believe in a god; so do Christians. Christians, however, believe in a PARTICULAR god; deists are more general and nonspecific about the deity's habits, affiliations, and identity.

Deism is the belief that God created the universe and has done jack shit since.

Possibly a misunderstanding; not fundy.

The world is perfect for us because we've evolved to fit it.

If you are going to claim to be a Deist, you might first learn how to spell it; then you might actually find out what Deists believe.
Just a suggestion.

Deists don't believe in a personal god, and they don't believe in Jesus as their "Lord and Savior", ergo they are not a sect of Christianity. A misunderstanding, maybe, but a pretty dang crazy one none-the-less.

I read this as Die-ist. Ya know; death cult.

The 'Creator' of the deists was both efficient and self-sufficient. Once the universe got started, everything happened in a logical fashion, and continues to happen to this day.

I don't think you fully comprehend what the word Deist means.

Deists believe in God, not Jesus. Hence, CHRISTIANS are the subset of Deism.
