1. an imaginary character probably created by the ancients, just like zeus, poisedon, odin, ra, set, & many others, to help leaders of governments exceed more & more by using fear & charisma
2. something many christians try to connect with other religions by saying that there is no difference between the words god, allah, krishna, etc., & try to unite other religions in order to help theism look less debunkable, but when a religious psycho destroys buildings in the name of the same god the christians no longer care to unite the word allah with their god in order to save it from a mess that it is really part of.
3. the most successful, being that has scared a lot of people into giving up their money & freedom without having to tell anyone, threaten anyone physically, & doing it w/out even existing at all! (i guess it really is all-powerful when it can do everything, even not existing!)

n 1: the supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe; the object of worship in monotheistic religions [syn: God, Supreme Being]
2: any supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force [syn: deity, divinity, immortal]

3. God
(A.S. and Dutch God; Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering:
(1) of the Hebrew _'El_, from a word meaning to be strong;
(2) of _'Eloah_, plural _'Elohim_. The singular form, _Eloah_, is used only in poetry.
The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by "LORD," printed in small capitals.
The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1). The arguments generally adduced by theologians in proof of the being of God are:
(1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded by reason.
(2.) The a posteriori argument, by which we proceed logically from the facts of experience to causes.
These arguments are:
(a) The cosmological, by which it is proved that there must be a First Cause of all things, for every effect must have a cause.
(b) The teleological, or the argument from design. We see everywhere the operations of an intelligent Cause in nature.
(c) The moral argument, called also the anthropological argument, based on the moral consciousness and the history of mankind, which exhibits a moral order and purpose which can only be explained on the supposition of the existence of God.
Conscience and human history testify that "verily there is a God that judgeth in the earth." The attributes of God are set forth in order by Moses in Ex. 34:6,7. (see also Deut. 6:4; 10:17; Num. 16:22; Ex. 15:11; 33:19; Isa. 44:6; Hab. 3:6; Ps. 102:26; Job 34:12.) They are also systematically classified in Rev. 5:12 and 7:12. God's attributes are spoken of by some as absolute, i.e., such as belong to his essence as Jehovah, Jah, etc.; and relative, i.e., such as are ascribed to him with relation to his creatures. Others distinguish them into communicable, i.e., those which can be imparted in degree to his creatures: goodness, holiness, wisdom, etc.; and incommunicable, which cannot be so imparted: independence, immutability, immensity, and eternity. They are by some also divided into natural attributes, eternity, immensity, etc.; and moral, holiness, goodness, etc.

none of you know what god is. none of you even know what you yourself are. so stop trying to tell people what you know, because you don't know shit. and unless thats what you're going to say, you might as well not say anything.
