Knuje · Guest

The Theory of PanDeism proposes that the Creator not merely made and
abandoned or withdrew from the Universe, but _became_ the Universe (in
the Pantheistic sense), so the Universe appears to have been
abandoned, but this appearance is prompted only in that the Creator
has put itself in a position of being unable to interact with it in a
conscious way.... which is in turn explained by the Creator's need to
experience existence through the prism of the Universe -- perhaps as
Johannes Scotus Erigena speculated thirteen centuries ago, because the
Creator is outside of any definition, and must see the Universe
through the defining senses of being such as ourselves to know what it
itself is!!

Does a deistic Universe logically lean further to being a pandeistic
Universe? Does this PanDeism flow naturally from the ideals of Deism,
in light of our recent trend of scientific discovery about the nature
of the energy from which the Universe is woven, and the patterns of
stellar and biological evolution? Or is PanDeism adding a step
unnecessary (or even anathema) to a rational model of a created
Universe?

It is sad that people would buy into anything as weak as Christianity
and any book written by men to the extent the people in the Latter Day
compound have done.
