Most human notions of what a "god" is are not perfect, all knowing or all powerful. These characteristics are mainly attributed to Islam, Judaism and Christianity, they are the exception, not the rule as to what most humans have regarded as "gods".
Most humans throughout human history have had their gods basically be like humans for the most part, maybe a little stronger or smarter, but not like what western religions teach. These past gods could be outsmarted and beat by humans in battles, these gods made mistakes often as well.
How should atheists define what characteristics make up a "god" to determine wether someone is believing in a certain entity?
