What does THEISM mean in Scrabble?
noun
The belief that one god, or several gods, exist, especially a creator who stays involved with the world.
Theism is the umbrella position that sits opposite atheism, and philosophers use it for the plain claim that a divine being is real. It is narrower than it sounds in one sense, because classic theism means a god who still acts in the world, unlike deism, where the creator steps back. The word was built in the seventeenth century from the Greek word for god.
