Quote:God
 
noun
1. the one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe.
2. the Supreme Being considered with reference to a particular attribute: the God of Islam.
3. ( lowercase ) one of several deities, especially a male deity, presiding over some portion of worldly affairs.
4. ( often lowercase ) a supreme being according to some particular conception: the god of mercy.
5. Christian Science . the Supreme Being, understood as Life, Truth, love, Mind, Soul, Spirit, Principle.

verb (used with object) god·ded, god·ding. ( lowercase )
9. to regard or treat as a god; deify; idolize.

interjection
10. (used to express disappointment, disbelief, weariness, frustration, annoyance, or the like): God, do we have to listen to this nonsense?

Origin: before 900; Middle English, Old English; cognate with Dutch god, German Gott, Old Norse goth, Gothic guth

Nope, no meaning whatsoever. Are you high or just being silly?

Thank you, you just proved my point.

You just posted ten definitions for "god" and atheism is the lack of belief in "god" or "gods"

I don't see it referring to a specific definition. When a word means that many things, you must specify which definition of the word you are referring to. Atheism fails to do this.

Oh, so you are just being silly then. Using your un-logic I can assert that there is no such thing as cheese because it can be a verb as well as a noun.

ROFLOL

So you're saying that you can say you lack a belief in something ,even if it has multiple definitions, without specifying which definition you are referring to?

Alright, let's try an experiment.

I'll make a new word: Gooblebloc

These are its definitions:

1.A rare type of cheese
2.a flying pink elephant
3.plastic
4.air

Okay, it's rational to claim that I lack a belief in Gobblebloc because I don't need to specify what I'm referring to!

LMFAO
