The only criteria for being a god is veneration. Period. You're trying to limit the definition to fit your idiotic ideology. Your quasi-religious traditional indoctrination. Pretty fucking stupid for an idiot atheist, don't you think? You think a god has to be supernatural? You're wrong. immortal? Wrong. Creator? Wrong. Real? Wrong. Existing? Wrong. Literal? Wrong. Believed or trusted? Wrong. Only believed to be good by believers? Wrong. Venerated? Right.
Unfortunately for you, your definition is accepted by no one else.
You seem to miss "context". You're beyond help.
But again thanks for telling us YOUR god of the Bible is the same thing as Putin and Thor.
The thing is, idiot, anyone can be "venerated" by anyone.
That doesn't mean , IN CONTEXT, they are thought to be a "god".
Normal people, which you clearly ae not, IN CONTEXT of religions and faith do not share your deviant definition.
You're making a fool of yourself. You really should stop.
There are all kinds of words in the dictionary that have various definitions. Anyone with half a brain gets that their meanings are dependent on the context in which they are used.
I get you jave no education, buy that simple concept escapes you.
I venerate my dog and my kitty-cat. They're just divine.
What an idiot.
As Dawkins once said to Cardinal Pell, "However you're using that word, it's not the way it's normally used in the English language".
Atheism
"The theory or belief that God does not exist. The word comes (in the late 16th century, via French) from Greek atheos, from a- 'without' + theos 'god'. From: atheism in The Oxford Dictionary"
What the fuck is your POINT ?
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell ![Popcorn Popcorn](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/popcorn.gif)
