Noun

personal god ‎(plural personal gods)

1. A deity who can be related to or thought of as a person, through an anthropomorphized persona, rather than an impersonal, and faceless, force of nature—an example of a personal god is the Abrahamic God of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—and a god with whom one cannot have a personal relationship.

   Albert Einstein was not an atheist, but did not believe in a personal god.
