Deism (jan 1, 1068 – jan 1, 1167)
Description:
Belief of many leading philosophes that the God who had created nature must be rational and favor rational morality. This religion believed in life after death and advocated empiricism, tolerance, encouragement of virtuous living, and reason. Its most controversial belief was that of an indifferent god who stepped back after creation and allowed human life unfold according to the laws of nature.
