The Hebrew word for god is el, and it means anything that is considered mighty or is venerated. The Bible refers to Jehovah, Jesus, Satan, the angels, men such as Moses, the judges of Israel, false gods such as Dagon, Molech, Baal, Ashtoreth, Tammuz and others as gods, as well as idols, sticks, stones . . . anything can be a god.
My definition, as well as most dictionaries are in agreement with the Bible on what a god / goddess is.
Seems kind of pointless to argue about it, doesn't it? A myth can be a god. A god can exist solely upon the religious veneration of anyone. Anything can be a god.
