[FONT="Arial"]Hey guys! For English, my group is doing a presentation about rationalism. What I want to know is, what is the difference between the religious beliefs of rationalists and deists? I don't want to be too similar to the group that is presenting on Deism, but I looked the two up, and they sound really alike D: Are there any distinct differences?[/FONT]

I think it's that rationalism doesn't belive in God without a reasonable doubt, while Deism is the same idea except that they do believe God is exist.
If I remember correctly rationalism is more like a mindset while Deism is the religious belief of that mindset
Course I could be completely wrong.

deism is saying god is master mechanic of the universe. or something like that.
i always thought deism was rationalism+religion.
