Theistic dualism is the belief that there are two opposing forces in the universe, usually a good force and an evil force, both controlled by a higher power or deity.

What is existentalism?
Existentialism is a term that is applied to the writings of a number of 19th and 20th century philosophers who had widely different doctrinal differences but generally held that people are entirely free and thus responsible for what they make of themselves. There were different views amongst existential philosophers as to the existence of God and the potential consequences. There were theistic and atheistic existentialists. The term arose in the mid twentieth century. The early 19th century philosopher Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855) is held to be the father of existentialism and he maintained in his writings that the individual is solely responsible for giving her or his own life meaning and for living life with passion and sincerity. Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) and Jean-Paul Sartre (1905-1980) are considered to be fundamental to the existentialist movement.

Differentiate the theistic and atheistic approach?
Theists belive in some sort of supernatural being or god. Atheists do not.

What is the difference between atheistic materialism and theistic materialism?
Materialism in its strictest sense refers to a world view according to which matter is the sole reality, and all things, beings and processes can be explained and accounted for in terms of material reality and phenomenon. Theism stands for belief in a supreme Being or God who is distinct or other from material reality, and is the cause or creator of matter. Paul Tillich, American theologian, probably, would say that God is Being-itself, or that God is the power of being, and ground of being of both material and non-material reality. Spinoza identified universe and nature with God. Hindu philosophy of advaita monism looks at material reality as an illusion. Theistic materialism would claim that matter is real, not an illusion, but it has been created by a superior reality of the Spirit. Matter can be controlled to manifest and incarnate the beauty of God. The terms 'atheistic materialism' and 'theistic materialism' have been used in philosophy. See, e.g., Robert C. Koons writes, "Philosophically, theistic materialism is a more coherent position than atheistic materialism, for the theist has an explanation for the three central facts that atheistic materialists must accept as brute facts." Koons, Robert C. Science and Theism: Concord not Conflict. http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/philosophy/faculty/koons/science.pdf., p.19. (Accessed on 21 September, 2007.) Another interseting book that has been recently published and which speaks on this topic is: Theistic Dialectical Materialism by James Singh, published at lulu.com. Atheistic materialists would deny the existence of God. Theistic materialism believes in God's existence, and claims that matter is subordinate to God,s purposes. The present writer encourages you to look for the terms 'Christian materialism' and 'theistic evolution' in Wikipedia. By J Chrysostom
