You might be a Deist if:

1. You believe in God but are not accepting of the authoritarian creeds of any particular religion.
2. You believe that God's word is the universe (nature), not human-written holy books.
3. You like to reason or speculate what God might be like rather than be taught about it.
4. You think that religious ideas should reconcile with and not contradict science.
5. You believe God can be best found outside rather than inside a church building.
6. You enjoy the freedom of seeking spirituality on your own.
7. You are morally guided by ethics and conscience rather than by scriptures.
8. You are an individual thinker whose religious beliefs are not formed from tradition or authority.
9. You like to call yourself rational or spiritual before you call yourself religious.
10. You believe that religion and government (church and state) should be separate.

Anybody care to expand or expound on this list?
