S1E7: Why "God" is not "god" (What do you mean by God? 3)
Manage episode 283250577 series 2858715
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."
