    That is just way to much work to find out nothing. What kinda stuff is that.

            True. I think half of the results are madeup by the creator of the quiz.

                        I think Deism is the belief in God, but without the usual dogma of other organized faiths. Think Unitarianism, but with an actual deity.

                        Dunno 'bout Scientific Pantheism, though. Sounds dodgy.

                          Frankychan - Deism from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deism

                          Historical and modern Deism are defined by the view that reason, rather than revelation or tradition, should be the basis of belief in God. Deists reject organized religion and promote reason as the essential element in making moral decisions. This "rational" basis was usually founded upon the cosmological argument (first cause argument), the teleological argument (argument from design), and other aspects of what was called natural religion. Deism has become identified with the classical belief that God created but does not intervene in the world, though this is not a necessary component of deism.
                          Scientific Pantheism from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_Pantheism

                          The World Pantheist Movement (WPM) is an organization of people associated with pantheism, a philosophy which asserts that spirituality should be centered around nature.
                          I suppose a form of pantheism whose grounds are from science? Such as that film What the bleep do we know?. Also more and more scientists are starting to say that science itself has helped them to affirm their faith in God or whatever.
