It is basically atheism and leads to nihilism in the end of things. A God who is not providential in the universe is basically no God at all and solves basically 0 of the problems with the atheist world view barring maybe infinite regress. Christ Conquers and deists die in the face of the abyss

you would have no mechanism by which you can come to knowledge of the existence of such a God either by reasoning from created objects void of God or from direct experience of God.

It has no content to #1 guide your purpose #2 give you duties/morals/direction/traditions #3 explain your origin and afterlife #4 allow you to relate to God/truth.

It's just a stepping stone, a starting point. It's not sufficient for salvation, enlightenment or anything worthwhile

It's just atheism that hasn't got its boots on
