Re: Deism- The most hated 'religion' -

Funny how almost every group and religion under the sun happens to be the "most hated". By and large, most people aren't hateful, no matter what you believe in. Sorry to spoil your martyrdom. In fact, most atheists I've talked to are just fine with deists. Even most militant atheists only take exception to organized religion.
The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.
