The meaning and "use of": deisms
noun
- belief in the existence of a supreme being, specifically of a creator who does not intervene in the universe. The term is used chiefly of an intellectual movement of the 17th and 18th centuries that accepted the existence of a creator on the basis of reason but rejected belief in a supernatural deity who interacts with humankind. - He reacts against the heresy of deism , the belief that God wound up the universe in the beginning but lets it run without intervention.
