Slang

"The grunt of the human hog (Pignoramus intolerabilis) with an audible memory. The speech of one who utters with his tongue what he thinks with his ear, and feels the pride of a creator in accomplishing the feat of a parrot. A means (under Providence) of setting up as a wit without a capital of sense" (Ambrose Bierce. The Devil's Dictionary. 1911).

deist

One who believes in a god, and there rests, not mixing the one article of his faith with articles of human invention.

If you really want to understand Deism, go read The Age of Reason, by Thomas Paine.
