More detailed definitions tend to emphasize the idea that <A title="Natural law" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_law">natural law</A>, <A title="Existence" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existence">existence</A>, and the <A title="Universe" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe">Universe</A> (the <A title="Absolute Infinite" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_Infinite">sum total</A> of all that is, was, and shall be) is represented in the <A title="Theology" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theology">theological</A> principle of an abstract 'god' rather than a personal, creative deity or deities of any kind.

As such, although many religions may claim to hold pantheistic elements, they are more commonly panentheistic or pandeistic in nature.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/385C3559-939C-4242-BC96-7943D1DD8067/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
