Yeah, pretty much the same thing I suppose. "Personal God" is ironically a very accurate phrase.

I don't know if God can be technically anthropormorphised, because it hasn't been shown to exist in any form. If it's purely imaginary in the first place, it can't "morph" into anything. The phrase seems more accurate when applied to obviously real things that people project onto (such as evolution, the weather, etc.)
