Pantheism. Part 2

My idea of Pantheism
Pantheism is the idea that the universe (everything that exists) or nature is the highest expression of existence. That sounds redundant.  Allow me to explain why it is not. Some people think there is a deity or deities that are separated, distinct from the universe, in most cases those deities are believed to have created the universe. In other words, some people believe these deities exist and are the most powerful and important beings there is, even more powerful and important that the universe, after all, in their view, these deities created the universe. However, there is a perspective where the universe does not need a creator. There is no need to introduce the idea of a creator to explain the universe. Current science have found out things about nature and so far, it is clear that even the most bizarre aspects of it can be explained given enough time devoted to research.  From this perspective, the Universe, is the most complex , important, powerful 'thing'. The Universe is the highest, most complex, most relevant, expression of reality or existence, because it is all there is. It is a complex explanation for a simple idea. But, that is because I like complexity, and I hope the point was made clear. At this point, I want to make an emphasis on how I use some words. Words are a tool of language to deliver a message. When the message is too complex, and hard to understand even for the source of the message (me) it takes many words to encompass it. Some prefer to use the word Divinity, or God. I prefer to use the words complex and complete. So, instead of calling the Universe God, or Divine (as many Pantheist do) I call it the most complex existence.
