It's -that- usage that helps to make a universe seem more godlike. How would the "it exists" usage achieve that work?
Gods are all grouped together as gods for their similarities. The universe is not like them..and there's two bits of nonsense going on when we resort to a semantic god better described as the universe, full stop. It excludes -all- of those other gods as gods..as they're nothing like the universe. If the meaning of the term "god" is best expressed as "the universe"...what should we call all of those other newly un-goded gods?
