How would you describe a stereotypical English person?

What word in English is used to describe a person who doesn't believe in religion but believes in the existence of God?

  • Answer:

    I believe the word you are looking for is "theist" - the opposite of "atheist". A theist is anyone who believes in God, but does not imply that they belong to any church or other religious organisation (mosque, synagogue...) .

You could call them a Quaker. There's no minister, no preacher, no organized service in that religion, though they believe in God.

A deist- Deism (ˈdi:iz(ə)m)[1] or (ˈdē-ˌi-zəm)[2] is a religious and philosophical belief that a supreme being created the universe, and that this (and religious truth in general) can be determined using reason and observation of the natural world alone, without a need for either faith or organized religion. Deists tend to, but do not necessarily, reject the notion of divine interventions in human affairs, such as by miracles and revelations. These views contrast with a dependence on revelations, miracles, and faith found in many Judeo-Christian, Islamic and other theistic teachings.

there is no such thing as a christian God as i believe jews and muslims believe in the same God..so does that mean he has three names, 'The Christian God, The Jewish God and The Muslim God'? No..rather the Lord is truly The one and ONLY God.
