History
Etymology
Possibly borrowed from German Pandeismus, from pan- (from Ancient Greek παν- (pan-, prefix meaning ‘all’)) + Deismus (“deism”) (from Latin deus (“deity, god”) + German -ismus (“-ism”)). (Similar words appear earlier in various languages, but apparently not in the same sense.) The word can be analysed as pan- + deism or as a blend of pantheism + deism.
