A deist is somebody who believes in a god or higher power, but believes humans have not identified this higher power or god. In other words, all organized religion is almost definitely false, according to deists. Deists technically are embracing an argument from ignorance. However, this is different from a typical argument from ignorance, because the premise is very different. For example, a deist will propose there must be an original creator of existence because, if you follow the logic of a god's existence, you must forever continue asking "who created god? Who created the creator of that God? Etc."

Deism is basically a "first cause" proposition, meaning they believe in a higher power or a god creating the universe, but this higher power/god must necessarily transcend time itself, because everything we know inside of time follows the basic laws of time (having a beginning and end). But, if everything has a beginning, there is never a true beginning of existence itself. That true beginning must have a higher power (or a god). Something without a beginning (transcending time itself) must have formed the universe, ultimately, even if there were previous universes that spawned our current universe in which we live.
A deist is someone who believes in science and reason, like atheists, but also believes in a first cause or higher power.

Best website EVER. Celebrity gossip but more on the general publics side, with the "why do I give a eff about these people" attitude. Makes fun of everyone. Dripping with sarcasm, and not kissing celebrity ass. One of the very few websites that will actually make you LAUGH OUT LOUD.
Person 1: "Where can I read celebrity gossip without having to deal an annoying website like perezhilton.com?"

Person 2: "Why, go to www.dlisted.com, of course!"

Delise is one of the most beautiful girls the live on this earth, you would be extremely lucky to have her in your life. She will treat you with a lot of kindness and respect, but be warned her amount of sarcasm is unethical. she will be so sarcastic you will never know when she is being Sirius with you. Delise's will always try and say that they don't look good or they are having a bad hair day but everyone would strongly disagree. She can be shy at first and will tent to keep to her self but when you get to know her she will never fail to make you laugh.

Delise's are very hard not to fall in love with, you can spend hours of time with her listening to all her story's and all the odd little adventures she has been on over the years.
she will also spend a large amount of her time in bed so don't bother to ask her to move.
"OMG Delise is looking beautiful today!"
