"Faith in wilderness, or in nature as a creative force... is a
philosophy, a faith; it is even, if you like, a religion. It puts your
ultimate trust not in human intelligence, but in whatever it is that
created human intelligence."
- Joseph Wood Krutch

What is Pantheism?
Pantheism holds that the cosmos, taken or conceived of as a whole, is synonymous with God. The Cosmos is divine, and the earth sacred.
Pantheists do not propose belief in a deity; rather, they hold nature itself as a creative presence. Pantheism reconciles science and religion through ecology leading to strong environmental awareness.
Pantheists believe in Divine Immanence. To the Pantheist, divinity does not transcend reality; it surrounds, and is within. All share divinity. This leads the pantheist to personal ethics of tolerance and understanding.
What will you find here?
Pantheism is more than a philosophy. It is also way of life.
Visit our page on Key Ideas to get an overview of modern universal Pantheism, then dig deeper on our Publications page.
The Universal Pantheist Society also offers an interactive on-line Network, an inclusive social networking site for all varieties of pantheists, panentheists, religious naturalists, and other like-minded folks. Our Online Network is an excellent place to meet other pantheists and share ideas, information on celebratory practice, cosmic experience, and upcoming events. You are welcome to join our online network free of charge.

What is the Universal Pantheist Society?
The Universal Pantheist Society was the first organization to recognize Pantheism as a religion (organized under U.S. 501(c)(3) statutes). It is a membership organization that has been serving Pantheists since 1975.
Pantheism as "an ancient faith, but its principles have never been more relevant. It fulfills a vital need in regaining harmony between Earth and Humanity, as well as providing a satisfying world view for personal growth and human relationships".
Recognizing that freedom of belief is inherent in the Pantheist tradition, our bylaws prohibit any requirement for or subscription to any particular religious belief, doctrine, or creed. Persons uniting with the Society do so to further their own understanding of Pantheists attitudes, and through their fellowship with others find purposive means of expressing their faith in daily life.
