why did you choose pantheism?

that is if you did. i myself chose it simply because atheism seemd to denie the supernatural and i am a strong beleiever in the powers of things that we may never even be able to comprehend, the universe is far more than a coincedence for me to just accept all the natural theorys about it.

to other pantheists out there wat are your own beliefs on your faith?

All atheism itself denies is the existence of all Gods.

but most atheists and most of wat people associate with them is denial of spiritual things, and a strong leaning toward science and the like

Yes, there are a lot of atheists like that (I'm one of them), and there are a lot of people who think atheism means more than just the denial of the existence of God. That does not mean that you have to be the same as all other atheists, and really, who gives a shit what the ignorant think? If they accuse you of being some "hard-nailed, soulless scientist", correct them about what atheism means.

All you are doing is changing the name of everything from "universe" to "god" and, maybe, making the claim that it is all one substance (which you can also make as an atheist, it's called monism).

I am kinda a pantheist because the universe is the only all powerful, all present, kinda of all knowing thing in existing. Its the closest thing to a God as we got.

But I am an atheist in the sense that I deny the existence of any sort of personal God and don't believe in a God in the traditional sense. And call everything God is kinda like just putting a label on it.
