 OFFLINE | A very noble belief indeed.
From Wikipedia:
Pantheism is the view that the Universe (Nature) and God are identical. Pantheists thus do not believe in a personal, anthropomorphic or creator god. The word derives from the Ancient Greek: πᾶν (pan) meaning ‘all’ and θεός (theos) meaning ‘God’. As such, Pantheism denotes the idea that “God” is best seen as a way of relating to the Universe. Although there are divergences within Pantheism, the central ideas found in almost all versions are the Cosmos as an all-encompassing unity and the sacredness of Nature. |

OFFLINE | Most Christians believe that since God created nature, God is in nature. At the same time, most believe that Jesus is coming soon so we might as well turn this planet into a slag heap because it won't matter. Pantheism is pretty cool but it seems more of an idea than a hippy dippy religion. |

OFFLINE | In a way, taoism can be seen as pantheism....
I don't like the idea of god being some sky dude with lightning bolts, but then if all things are just aspects of the one whole, which is god, then the only difference between pantheism and atheism comes down to asthetic taste of the superficial labels of your ontology, no? |

Then what's anti-matter? 
still god, or" part of" or "within" god
god isnt only "all matter", also "anti-matter", "black matter", "dark energyr", life, death, love, hate, pain, pleasure, proton, and electron
from the tiny plankton to the great whale, to galaxies so far away theyr receding by now, an even beyond to the multiverse, all is in "it", of "it", and all is one as "it"self

atheism doesn't believe in God period. Pantheism believes everything is God and God is everything. |
