Pantheism

Is the view that the Universe (nature) and God (or divinity) are identical. Pantheists thus do not believe in a personal anthropomorphic or creator God.  The word is derived from the Geek (pan) meaning all and the Greek (theos) meaning "God".  A such Pantheism denotes the idea that God is best seen as a process of relating to the Universe.  Although their are divergencies within Pantheism, God is identical with the Universe.

I really like this definition of this possibility.  This is something I could wrap my mind around much easier than what I was force fed as a child.  I like the idea of praying, or asking for help with my eyes open and my head up, rather with bowed head and eyes lowered, I did that enough as a young woman when I was shamebased.

I rather like Pantheism, perhaps I will do more studying on the subject.
