say what now? theism? um hello, theism is....a view on religion, not a lack there of.
arthur clarke said it best
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic
Fact is that as far as im concerned, by the time a being is approaching me with what is essentialy proof he/she/it is God as described by the worlds religions, how am i to know that what proof i see is not merely a technology advanced beyond me so far that i cant tell if its real divinity or just technology.
it would be like showing a gaveman your lighter or a handgun, *magic* to him, old technology to you. forget about what television would do to him, hehe.
