Deism is a belief in the existence of a higher power or creator, but it rejects the idea of revelation, miracles, and the notion of a personal God who interacts with the world. Adherents of Deism believe in a non-intervening God who created the universe and its laws, but does not intervene in human affairs. It is related to Zoroastrianism through their shared belief in a single, ultimate deity who created the world and set it in motion. However, while Zoroastrianism includes elements of revelation and prophecy, Deism rejects these ideas. Deism also has some similarities with atheism, as both reject the idea of a personal God who interacts with the world, but Deism maintains a belief in a higher power or creator. In this hierarchy, Deism can be seen as a more specific belief system that falls under the broader category of Religions and is related to Atheism through their shared rejection of a personal God, while also having connections to Zoroastrianism due to their belief in a single deity who created the world.
