Then I found the the word *Deism*. Our founding forefathers, well our first 3 presidents were Diests, they believed in God, as a creator, a builder of sorts, but we believe like a clock maker would make a clock set the pendulem in motion, and let it tick away. Never needing to interfer in any way.
I once called myself a Deist, lol! I still hold on to the clock maker anaolgy, though. They don't believe in divine interference, which I agree with. God set the machine in motion, and left us to take care of our own. :thumbsup:

Also, Deism isn't at all organized as far as I know. There are no strictly Deist churches, or dogma to follow, right ? Good stuff!
