Is this a new thing? I've not heard this one before. The word "God" is now redefined as a "title" (a definition that appears nowhere in the dictionary). Most people think of a powerful, immortal being when you say the word "god" and a specific being, the creator of the universe when it's the proper name, capital G "God". But now some Christians are saying it's just a jointly held title?
Kind of like a corporation with three shareholders?
Or a club with three members?
The word we usually use is "pantheon", or collective of gods within a mythology.
So explain how Christianity is not polytheistic with that redefinition of the word "God".
