What Is The Point Of Prayer?

[Jackalope]

that atheists when they use the word "god" are referring to the God of the Bible.

I don't presume to speak for all atheists, but when I refer to the God of Abraham, I use the word 'God' (or 'Allah'). For all others, I use the word 'god'.

I don't presume to speak for anyone but myself, but I do not do as you do. In general, when I am speaking of generic deity, I say "god", when I am speaking of a specific deity, I will say "your god", or "the christian god", etc.

I don't use the capitalized form for the Abrahamaic god because I feel that implies undue legitimacy over the uncountable other gods man has invented, all of which appear to be equal horseshit to me.
