 Theism is the proposition that God exists. A theist is anyone who accepts or believes that proposition. In this entry we limit ourselves to pragmatic arguments concerning Theism – whether pro or con – and skip over pragmatic arguments for non-theistic religions. A theistic pragmatic argument contends that there are practical, prudential, or moral reasons for inculcating theistic belief. An atheistic pragmatic argument holds that there are practical, prudential, or moral reasons for denying Theism.
