126. See post #118

Apparently the US is a christian nation. Therefore we should us "God." Furthermore, Jews and Muslims would accept using the word "God" but using "Yahweh" or "Allah" would be inappropriate. Apparently in the Buddhist religion, Buddha is the equivalent of the Christian god, and since Buddhists all pray to Buddha, they can say "God" too. And then there's the Hindus, saying "God" is shorter then saying "gods" so we're saving them time and effort, plus having all those extra gods is just plain silly. As for atheists, if they don't believe in God, they're immoral, so they don't count.
