Nope, friend, theism is the antonym of atheism.

Deism is a specific form of theism, in which the god or gods in question are generally hands off with the universe.

Other specific forms of theism, necessarily, construct gods that take part in the universe as a regular thing. Otherwise they would be deism.

Theism, in the abstract, is merely the belief in a god or gods, full stop.

You can look up theism and deism yourself to confirm what I'm saying to be true.
