Otherwise I can only assume you're making inconsistent statements here, which would seem to put your credibility in question.

Jeez, you can't read between the lines? I'm a deist; as in belief in a higher power through logic and reason rather than bronze age myths and scriptures.

Now can you explain how it applies to the topic at hand?

Do ya believe in God?

Re-read 189.

189 is a dodge. The above legitimate question was based on your own statement above.

I admit I am a little ignorant of what a Deist is. So I took a look for myself. From the links I found below, it clearly states that they believe in God.

A deist is a person who believes that God designed and created the world and governs it through natural laws that are inherent in everything.

And another link states:

Welcome to Modern Deism Deism is a reason-based faith that postulates a belief in God through a foundation of Reason, Personal Experience and Nature (nature of the universe) with emphasis on freethought rather than a foundation of Divine revelation(s) and Holy texts. Essentially, through the use of Reason, God’s existence is revealed by the observation of nature and our own personal experiences. For the Deist, the order and complexity found in nature coupled with our rational experiences of nature leads to a belief in God.

So according to the above, you do believe in God right?

I do not believe in anything for which there is no evidence.

And if you do, well you know what I'm getting at...Lets cut to the chase, show me your *evidence* and quit weaving and dodging.

I'll check back later.
