It doesnt matter if its Budda or Zues, God is undetermined regarding which religion it speaks of if any. Yes it does matter. God refers explicitly to the Judeo-Christian God and NO other.

I would say God is mentioned in the Constitution. In the Preamble the founders express they were writing the document to "secure the Blessings of Liberty," and in Article VII they tell us to whom it came from: "Done in Convention by the Unanimous Consent ofo the States ... in the Year of our Lord...."

Uh, God is the supreme being, so even if the framers of the Constitution may have (may have, because we really aren't sure) intended it to be the Judeo-Christian "God", the "God" referred to is the same almighty supreme being of most mainstream religions. Even though muslims initially were worshipping Allah as a moon-god, the most powerful of many of their pagan gods, I think they generally worship Allah today as the one almighty God.
