Btw what's the difference between Panendeism and Panentheism?

I'm no expert, but I'd suggest that Panendeism arises out of a modernisation of Deism; where a creator God is more amorphous and non-doctrinal than a Panentheist God would be. I think Panentheists may attribute specific doctrinal attributes for their God(s) (like Panentheist Christianity, Panentheist Hindu, etc.), whereas PanenDeists might think of a less scripturally-bound creator. I don't know for sure though.
A mismash of Taoist and Buddhist (which is pretty logical when you think about it ^^).
Got no issues with peoples religion in general, only when religion are used asan excuse for violence, or giving some people a higher worth do I have issues.
Add to that the belief that I think that any God would prefer a mortal to be goodthrough his/her own convictions, and NOTdo good because they are told to do so. Since one is undoubtedly a good person because they found it in themselves to be what they are, the other would never know why they acted like they did, and thus could not be good to begin with, since it was not thierown conviction. (Basicly I have a distrust for people following a religion that they themselves do not understand or question, or any kind of people following anything blindly and fanatically).
Ive never been a fan of religions supressingneeds that is in our nature, and needed for survival (read: urges and needs, that we were born with/created with):S
-Note that this is not in any way an attack against any kind of religion, since I think that you can be a good person, and get rewarded accordingly, nomatter the religious persuasion you belong to, as long as you are of that religion by choice and through reflection, and not simply because you follow the norm where you live-

The way I see itSatanism is the same word for atheism. I say this because if one believes that divine Sadism is logical and possible, then he is actually an atheist.

Close,but no cigar. It is a form of Atheism. Where one treats life a "a great indulgence". In which he live to life and enjoy it. There's more to it, but that's the gist of it.Please Log In to post.
