“Epicurus was a philosopher who asserted a deistic worldview, i.e. one in which the gods are wholly separate from the universe and human affairs. This approach denied divine involvement in the creation of the world or administration of nature and its laws, and freed man from the obligation to make offerings, pray to the gods, or observe the precepts devised by religious leaders.”
