I have heard something similar so now, I try avoiding the word, god in my speech. Because I am in the southeastern USA, there are a lot of right wingers who seem to just wait for the gotcha moment so that they can pounce with an air of superiority. You can't have a discussion with them because they run away with their fingers in their ears refusing to hear anything else. Until killing them becomes legal, I would rather not give them any fodder to use to annoy me.
