Let us first start by defining the word god , what does the Oxford and Cambridge dictionary give as definition. Definitions of god on the Web: the supernatural being conceived as the perfect and omnipotent and omniscient originator and ruler of the universe; the object of worship in monotheistic religions deity: any supernatural being worshipped as controlling some part of the world or some aspect of life or who is the personification of a force a man of such superior qualities that he seems like a deity to other people; "he was a god among men". this is a very good example here of what god means. idol: a material effigy that is worshipped; "thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image"; "money was his god" wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn Gathering of Developers (aka God Games and Gathering) is an American videogame publisher based on Dallas, TX, established to serve as a "friendly" publisher for independent development companies. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOD The term God is used to designate a Supreme Being; however, there are other definitions of God. For example: *Many religious and philosophic systems consider a God to be the creator of the universe. *Some traditions hold that the creator of the universe is also the sustainer of the universe (as in theism), while others argue that their God is no longer involved in the world after creation (as in deism).*The common definition of a God assumes omnipotence, omniscience and benevolence. , en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God Gates of Discord (GoD, GOD, Gates, or simply the Gates expansion) is the seventh expansion released for EverQuest — a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG).

While the term 'goddess' specifically refers to a female deity, words like 'gods' and 'deities' can be applied to all gods collectively, regardless of gender. They don't necesarily refer to male gods in specific. This article focuses on the last category. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_(male_deity) The[b] Bible contains no definition of God[/b], but contains many allusions to His being and attributes. God is Spirit (John 4:24), infinite in power (Dan 4:35), complete in wisdom, absolutely truthful (Heb 6:18), perfectly holy (Lev 11:44).
