what makes them theists? a vague sense of belief but no practical theology or ritual, no actions what so ever?
I'm not judging anyone, it makes no difference to me if people take some comfort or mollify their Grandparents by continuing to describe themselves as Catholic or Jewish or Muslim but for someone to 'be something' they need a set of beliefs and actions that go with it, I can call myself a fisherman but I own no fishing gear, haven't been fishing in 45 years and have no plans to ever go fishing again, I am not actually a fisherman, despite the fact I have some passing knowledge of fishing and went fishing a bit when I was kid with me grandad.
