which can be interpreted as the universe itself. (Deists and many atheists do.)

You been DRINKING way too much Kool-Aid yourself, bub.

Unless it's NOT true and you're NOT of the "depends on what your meaning of IS is" crowd.

Deists indeed believe the universe and the laws of it to be "Nature's Creator."

As reason applied to objective reality guides my morality, and because I am an atheist,
it could metaphorically said that I see "reality" or the "universe" as "Nature's Creator," without
necessity of reverting to mythology.

You alone are not the arbiter of what a metaphor is, nor does your faith
allow you to define what others believe.

Meanwhile, knock back a cup of blood. It's on the house.
