FOLYKAZE: To summarize the proper noun/ common noun usage, I think the easiest way to handle the situation is to capitalize the word god when it is used as a proper name as the name of the god of a monotheistic religion, such as the god of Christianity or Judaism, and not capitalize it when it is used as a common noun: God (capitalization) God is capitalized when it functions as a name. In this use, God is a proper noun like any other name and does not take a definite or indefinite article. But in phrases like the Biblical god and a forgiving god, which do have articles, there’s no need to capitalize god because it is a common noun rather than a name—yet many religiously inclined writers still capitalize the word in these instances. So abeg turn yaba left |

FOLYKAZE: Bobo no let me swear for you o. Who you dey follow call 'oga ade'? Wtf! Mtchw! Are you blind as you are dumb? Monotheistic religions believe in one God. The names they call them are different. The explanations apply to the fact that they believe in one God. Yes his name is Yaweh mary! But among all gods he is God the supreme of all! Mtchew |

FOLYKAZE: That's what I mean by context. You are an atheist , as you have stated you do not believe in many God ideas as portrayed by their advocates. You even try to form your own ideas just to get meaning out of the Gods that are being peddled. Why you go about haranguing others is what I really do not understand. You failed to accept a lot of the Gods as portrayed but go about haranguing others. |

dalaman: You dont get it dude. Look inwardly, there is nothing like God but we have something and lot of things that can be called god. It could be an idea, entity or concept but theist and even the atheist have failed to look up to. In this sense I mean why we dont ask question about what God is or the quality that made god a god. Why is the river that run down the corner of a street is been worship. How is the water content different from the one that run in the tap and why the one that run freely and very dirty is revered. Why is the python in Lagos is killed at will but the one in Idemili is been worship? Why is chicken is everyone favourite meal but those in Ode Aye worship it as a deity. We need to look away from God but face that which is called God. Take for example the Yoruba god of iron Ogun in the creation story. We learnt that Ogun and not any other deity moulded a bone. Science came and told us bone isbmade from Calcium which is a metalic element. Ogun also is a metalic substance like Calcium. The two accounts depict a man with the profession of Goldsmith from Yoruba Kingdom who happen to be a God and a chemical element. So when an atheist or theist choose to rally after the God and not what the God really is, they both lose real target. Atheists and theist confusion and argument starts and ends here. The two accounts is pointing to the same direction holding the same truth. But when we look after the God, we get the wrong perception. We see an old man struggling in his workshop with big hammer and hot fire moulding human bone. I am not specifically saying all deity have scientifical essence but I am trying to say thay what we call God is not another thing. Who knows if it is truth, I have heard someone arguing that Jehovah is vocalnic eruption. But we are all configured to see Jehovah as a man living in the sky. But no matter how you look inwardly, there would always be an essence we are missing when we look for God and not what the God is composed of. I dont believe in God but believe in every essence which a God tries to express. Can you tell me how I discussion is abusive |

FOLYKAZE: What is the trinity? John 14:9-17 (NASB) Jesus said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father Do you worship God? Yes. Do you worship Jesus? Yes. What does that make Jesus? |
