Partially respect of the law, (although it is a hard practice when writing a lot), mostly, in this context, I was trying to effect this as G_od in the religious/philosophical entity sense as universial spiritual being, and not G_d by name as the one true creator defined by the Bible.

"God" is not a name - it is a title or "species" taxonomic tag for vastly potent paranormal entities. same with "devil", "deva", "angel", "djinn", "asura", "elohim", etc...
it ain't the proper name of the pancreator-god of the Jews and Christians - that'd be yodhehvauheh/yahweh/jehovah
I really do dislike that "G_d" affectation - it seems to me that it is not merely silly, but in fact rather ostentatious public vanity.

(many accuse me of being overly literal... this would not be a problem if many were not under-precise)
