Considering his name is JHVH, or IHVH depending on the script used, your little "G-d" tag is nothing more than pretension.

Why is it my "little G-D" tag?" I'm not Jewish. However, unlike you, I respect my friends who are Jewish and choose to to spell "God" as "G-d."

Spelling God as G-d is exactly like spelling Dog as D-g. A "God" is a deity. The word "God" is a noun, not someones name.

It SHOULD be readily apparent that using "God" instead of "Jehova" is already honoring the Judeo-Christian deity by not using his name.

Thanks for the ping, but LindaSOG seems to explained it well in 23, including the evolving consideration of the internet as a non permanent source.

Got it right about shame and ridicule as well.

In that case, wouldn't it also make sense to follow suit by typing out "J-wish?"
