Etymology of THEISTICAL

The word "theistical" is derived from the root word "theist" and the suffix "-ical".

The term "theist" comes from the Greek word "theos", meaning "god" or "deity". The "ist" suffix in "theist" indicates a person who believes in or adheres to a particular belief or philosophy, in this case, the belief in the existence of a god or gods.

The suffix "-ical" is commonly used to form adjectives and indicates that something is related to, characterized by, or associated with a particular thing or concept.

Combining "theist" and "-ical" results in the word "theistical", which describes something or someone as relating to or having the characteristics of being a theist. It is often used to refer to ideas, beliefs, or philosophical systems that advocate the existence of a god or gods.
