No, I'm not a self-appointed scold at all (at least I hope!) and I apologize if you think so. I just want to know why you think it's not kosher to spell God, G-d. That's all!

The main reason I dislike spelling God as "G-d", is that it seems that it is most prevelant among those who are supposedly trying to keep from offending others by actually spelling it out. I had no idea that devout Jews were averse to it because of their religious mores. I was kind of raised Catholic and never really got it. I treid several other religions and still had trouble connecting. I finally came to my Saviour via a non-denominational Church that teaches the Bible and will not cave to society. I guess that makes me ignorant of most religions, but I'm getting pretty fluent in the book that forms the basis of many of them.

Have a great freeper day.
