Probably the name was set in the database copy we gave to the bible dudes?

According to the beginning of the Wikipedia [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deist]article[/quote], it means that you pretend to be using reason when claiming that there is some sort of god/divine power. I do not think that makes you any more credible than the usual sort of believers. Your dislike for books about religions does not qualify you any more than the christian dudes to tell us what to do!
Yeah, agreed so far.

Okay, I think I can respect that.

"Whhaaa, it has God on a coin. I dont believe in God, they're shoving their religion down my throat. I'm going to get it changed". That's just an example of what most 'athiest' do

That is awesome. Perhaps you should talk them into spending their time on more useful things, like trying to get rid of the Intelligent Design folks.

I used the term 'athiest' because most athiest are ignorant fools who havn't pondered deeply about the universe. They found out they didn't like Christianity so they claim to Atheism.

I like to refer to myself as an 'atheist' instead, even though I do not tend to sit around and ponder universes. This is because I refuse to believe in an arbitrarily invented supernatural, which is pretty much what atheism is all about. I did not get told about any pondering requirements when joining the club, but what kind of pondering should be done before I am allowed to leave Christianity?
Also should I put up with mandatory classes that sell christianity as a worthwhile field of studies on the same level as physics, history or random foreign languages? Would that not be insulting to actual scientists?
Why should I put up with the government devoting the country I live in and the currency I use for my living to a deity I do not believe in?

That is something to be proud of, I am certain.
