Trust me, you don't usually shy away from an argument you know that you can win.

You know that you cannot win the deistic argument and you have realized that. With time, you Wil accept Agnosticism. It's a matter of time before you know.

Agnosticism is the best approach for someone who's considering all possibilities.

LoLz. I already told you I am an agnostic atheist did you forget?

LoLz @ cannot win the deistic argument. What exactly is there to win or loose? You make me laugh. Bwahahahahaha!

Your idea of a thing that is a creator, that has all this power is gotten from monotheism.
Monotheist claim that their variou god can do this and that and give it ridiculous qualities and attributes.

You as a deist, accept that a thing called god is also a creator, you also give it ridiculous qualities and attributes.
How do you know any god is powerful?

Seriously, you can't tell if you don't know the exact tone.

I jusy want you to see that you are seriously portraying those attributes a typical theist will portray if an argument is straining him so much

The logic behind deism is that, the absence of evidence is not evidence for absence. Deists argue based on law of casualty.
Their idea is that a cause caused the universe but this Casue doesn't intervene in the proceedings of the universe. Two claims:

1. Casualty: they can argue from statistic here that no one can provide a scenario where something didn't come from another thing. As a matter of fact, with the evidence available, you cannot create something from nothing. If you try this 100 times, you will fail 100times, which means they this deistic claim has 100% level of significance. Although I still insist that their claim is logical but not scientific.
People may argue about infinitive regress, it's true that this resosning will lead to infinite regress but there's evidence for now that you cannot create something from nothing hence the universe cannot be created from nothing.

2. The Cause of the universe doesn't interfere with the universe: this is also true with the evidence available.

I am not a deist, I am an Agnostic because I see some level of sense in both deism and atheism in the same vein I can identify their flaws which is why I have to wait for an evidence.

Atheism has so many flaws as well.

What are the flaws in atheism

1. Fallacy of appealing to ignorance: Atheism suggests that something can be outrightly rejected on the ground that we do not have sufficient knowledge about it. This is an inference reached from ignorance.

2. Fallacy of Affirming the consequent
Inferring that P is true solely because Q is true and it is also true that if P is true, Q is true. Or if P is false, Q is also false.

If The religious gods have been proven false, it doesn't mean that a non-religious God is also false, one has to also independently disprove the latter.


3. False dilemma
Presenting a limited set of alternatives when there are others that are worth considering in the context.
Atheism assumes that it is either you believe in a god or not, it's no possible to be neutral like we see in agnostic. They make this mistake a lot.
They conjure several terms like agnostic atheism, gnostic theist etc to show that pure agnostic is impracticable while in the real sense, it's very possible to be in-between.

1. Theists have not provided any counter-arguments or data to back up the claim of a god. So, we reject that claim. Same as myself claiming hdktlei exists, without evidence to its qualities and properties. The burden of proof lies with the claimant
2. This is risible. Can the non-theist gods be proven?
3. To be honest, all those qualifications are not my concern.
I'm an atheist but I have a soft spot for agnostic. Just like I'm straight but have a soft spot for lesbianism grin
