It is common to nowadays for people to think that God of Christianity is just another god--even if a very popular one that's supposedly all-powerful and all-knowing. Some may even say that Christians insist on the capital "G," for their "God" because they just want their god to be unique among others. But, that's not quite right. Christians would in fact insist that other peoples and nations across the world do know their "God" too in their own way. It's just that the Christian idea of "God" is a very different idea from that of gods. "God" is not "god."
00:00 Early Christians were called the "atheists"?!?
02:13 Is Isaac Asimov's supercomputer, "God"?
05:58 From early Israel's belief in "god" to "God"
12:50 "God" and "Yahweh" is a very odd name for a god
16:14 The idea of "God" that is not a god
18:42 Christian search for "God" in beliefs of other peoples
