I agree with you there Naaij.
God is just a "word", it's even not the name of my God.
God is just a general word. Anything can be worshipped as a god by people.
It is the God you mean by saying God.
The Jews don't use the name God when they worhsip, they use the word God in their own language. Same for muslims, Allah means God, so that's all.
People worshipping a golden kalf, if they had been muslims instead of jews, they would have called that calf allah.
Tis just a word, no more.
But I am curious to the real name of Allah though..
Of our god it's AHYH ASR AHYH(I Will Be Who I Will Be). If it be Yahweh, or written differently in english, the letter are at least his name...(darn hebrews, why couldn't they write normally )
Elohim is the hebrew word for god, yet it just means god.
It's the "being" behind it, that makes the word powerfull or not.
