Well, that I suppose we use God, it encompasses all faiths, even those who don't actually believe in a supreme being. For them God should represent a human ideal of the supreme good and purest part of the human imagination.
Originally posted by Grand_Moff_GavI disagree in the sense that the line was obviously crafted with the Christian God in mind. Like the Jews believe and Theodore Roosevelt said, the name of God should not be put on something as common as money. And the Muslims believe the same, I believe. So obviously it doesn't speak for the Jews or Muslims.
You in what sense? In the sense that the phrase was made with the Christian God in mind or do you not believe that other faiths call their deity God?

The Jew has always been a people with definite racial characteristics and never a religion.
