A "religion" combining Deism and Atheism. While Dewists believe in God, they believe He is the rules, laws, and constants that guide the universe and not a sentient being.
In Dewism, you don't worship God. You study, know and respect Him.

pan-deism 

A group of religions similar to pan-theism, but with a deist outlook on the nature of God. Pan-deists believe that God is immanent in the universe - basically that God is everything and everything is God. However, unlike pan-theism, God is not a conscious or active being, but non-personal and non-interventory.

Diffs from panen-theism/panen-deism, which believe that even though God is immanent in the universe, he also transcends it (exists outside of it partly). Also spelt pandeism.
Oh ignore that dude, he's a pan-deist - he sees the divine in a pinecone even.

I never said that nature has a soul or conciousness - you need to read up on pan-deism to understand.

Hinduism is not pan-deistic; it's panen-theistic.

"From Latin Deus, God.Deity The doctrine or creed of a Deist." And Deist is defined in the same dictionary as: "One who believes in the existence of a God or supreme being but denies revealed religion, basing his belief on the light of nature and reason."

The beleif that god exists, but so do scientific and logical things.

Deists beleive that, rather then God shouting dramaticly "Let there be chickens!!" *, God created the first cell which then evolved into all other life. Meanwhile God was off doing important things, like creating other universes.

*let's not get into if he prehaps created eggs first, shall we?
In Deism, you beleive that God exists, but that's just about all you think about him.

Its creed is pure, and sublimely simple. It believes in God, and there it rests.
It honors reason as the choicest gift of God to man, and the faculty by which he is enabled to contemplate the power, wisdom and goodness of the Creator displayed in the creation; and reposing itself on His protection, both here and hereafter, it avoids all presumptuous beliefs, and rejects, as the fabulous inventions of men, all books pretending to revelation.

--Thomas Paine

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
