What about Good bye?
Is that suppose to be God by or by god?
I know that in french, they say "adieu" which is "a dieu" which mean "to god" but they use it to say good by.
It looks like french and english use an almost similar term in this case.
Other cultures say "may god be with you". I think all these cultures have copied each other.
