I once met one guy on Youtube who says he believes that Jesus was so moraly perfect (secular language to say sinless) that He got attention of the Supreme Being (i.e. God) and that this Supreme Being adopted Jesus as His own Son on baptism and filled Him with supernatural power, explaining Jesus's miracles. He also thinks God did raised Jesus from the dead, but this was simply the reward for Jesus's perfectness and Christ's ascension to heaven was simply reward for Jesus to be ascended to the spiritual realm where God resides. That's all he believes. He doesn't think Original Sin is true, he doesn't think Exodus happened (the way it is described in the Bible), he doesn't believe in pre-existence of Christ, not in virgin birth, Atonement of Christ or Second Coming. He thinks that Jesus was mistaken about promises of Second Coming because He confused God with Yahweh He worshipped as a Jew and thought Kingdom will be set with Him as the Messiah. After Resurrection, Christ knew that Yahweh and the Father are not the same God (according to this Christian deist). This deist also considers Gospel of Mark as ONLY reliable, he rejects other three Gospels. He doesn't worship Jesus or pray to Him, he isn't part of any denomination, he is very liberal, he is okay with homosexuality and etc. I wonder, are there any other deists who think Christ historically rose from the dead?

In short, Deism is more or less that God exists but has not really an interaction with humanity. He just gave a set of natural laws by which he governs people. Now, Jesus came to Earth as the incarnated God ascended from above, so by this there seems to be a direct interaction between God and human kind. Does this mean that Deism isn't really possible in Christianity even though in the 18th Century it developed within Christian countries? Was this perhaps more about God and not so much with Jesus involved? If it can exist how was/is this argued? I'm not sure is any denomination has a particular view on this, but if necessary the vision of the RCC would be welcome.

Deism teaches the watchmaker analogy , and Catholicism teaches about the gift of free will and the natural order of things. Those seem to have a lot in common. --- For instance: According to Catholic Tradition - Might God apologize for some things after we die? Or will He simply remind us of things like: - "I gave people free will, and free will meant that I could not intervene. Some people chose evil, and that evil hurt some good people. It is what it is." - "I set the world in motion. That is all. Natural disasters are a scientific phenonemon; they aren't something that I specifically or intentionally created." - "Some good people died young because they fell victim to viruses, bacteria, plagues, and/or bad genes. Again, it's all science, and the natural order. I had nothing to do with it." --- So does Catholicism share some beliefs with Deism?

Is it wrong to try to reach God with reason instead of faith? I really believe that logical reasoning is the way to get closer to God but since I was a kid my parents and relatives keep telling me that I can only get closer to God and be saved by my faith and I'm not really a faith person, I'm more a logical person. I'm afraid I'm taking the wrong road, my mind keeps telling me I'm right thinking with reason but my parents and friends from church keep telling me I'm not going to be saved because of that. I've started studying Deism and I really like it, not everything, but it makes sense to me. Is there anyone that can make me understand more about Christianity and logical reasoning? PS: Am I going through a spiritual war or something like it? I'm really confused and a bit scared about my decisions and thoughts. Thanks in advance for any help.
