anti-deism: the philosophy that gods are unworthy of worship, religion is founded on anthropomorphizing spiritual forces, and that their collected works boil down to humans controlling other humans by threat of outside force.
From a friend. What do you guys think?

Gods are unworthy of worship? If they exist then I would agree

Im ,sort of with Admin on this one.
"religion is founded on anthropomorphizing spiritual forces"
For something to be "anthropomorphized" , doesn't it have to exist first ?
So no "spiritual forces" thus nothing to anthropomophize so no Gods.

"Do you think it was just poorly put?"
Not really but I think it does cry out for a definition of "spiritual forces" or at least of their status ,real or imagined.
