Goodbye,

How do you know they haven't. It would greatly depend on what people thought God was. If someone thought God was an angry tyrant, would it be good to have God be an adjective. Some think God is beyond definition, how would they make God an adjective? Others think God is all knowing and all loving. Can a human reach that height?

divine

This is why I use the word divine. It is gender neutral, and it implies an adjective, verb, and a none. The word god has become so convoluted over they years, I never know which one anyone is talking about! for me the term divine transcends theological banter - not to mention it helps me to remember what the hell I am talking about when the subject of god ever comes up in casual conversation (which for me is more often then should be normal.)
