Deocredism

Deocredism is the philosophical view that God is everywhere and inhabits everything. The belief system as a whole seems to imply connections between pantheism and buddhism. More detailed definitions demonstrate the idea that God is the universe. This seems to imply that nature as a whole along with the cosmos and energy are all parts of god, and that this being is supreme but does not appear to be related to the interpretations of god as found in Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.

History of Deocredism

The history of Deocredism is short and implies a lack of expansion. The philosophical beliefs stem from the multiple ancient philosophies. Deocredism has been organizing since its founding in 2007 C.E. Since then it has made little way in expanding. In 2008 C.E. it appeared for the first time on a facebook group. From then on it has continued to expand on the internet but has thus far failed to gain any wide recognition.

Main Thought Process

According to Deocredic writings God is everywhere and everything. It has been explained that everything that is, was, and will be is God. This is often linked with pantheism, which expresses the idea that God is everything. The Greek presocratic philosopher Parmenides, suggested the what can not be thought of can not exist. This same principle is found in deocredic thought which implies that one can not imagine something that exists beyond the universe/god. According to this idea a person can imagine anything that can be manifested by god, but for anything that exists outside god they can not conceptualize. This principle has been expanded to encompass the idea that nothing can ever be known about what lies beyond the universe/god because one does not exist outside of universe/god, thus they can not go there at all.
