Follow-up from yesterday’s “When you get prayed for” OP…

Fellow blogger, Ellabulldog, is making the claim that pantheism is atheism.

• Do you agree?

• Who/What entity is the ultimate authority on those definitions: Webster, community (the existing folkways and mores), your/the church, fellow pantheists/atheists, the Pope or other religion figureheads, the self, other?

• In truth (whatever that is), are these two categories of “religion” (i.e., “theisms”) merely ECCs (meaning essentially contested concepts, in the eye-of-the-beholder)?

• How do you define these two (disparate?) philosophies?  Go into as much detail as you can.
