What do different currents of thought have to say about God and the universe? Theism — God created the world and manages all its events; Deism — God established the universe but doesn't interfere with it; Panentheism — God includes the eternal universe, and also exists above it; Pandeism — God, upon the creation of the world, became one with it, and is now the universe itself; Pantheism — the universe is equated to God, or is seen as sacred; Atheism — the absence of belief in anything supernatural, or the belief in the existence of nature only; Agnosticism — the answer is not yet known, or is entirely unfathomable.
