Notwithstanding that God is an old English word.


What would the acronym represent.

The eord for singular officialy deity was Elah in Aramaic which waa forme from plural 'gods' in Hebrew which was Elohim (and the fact they referred to God as Elohim at times in Tabakh proves a Trinity but that is a separate debate).


Islam decided while still forming the Arabic language to co-opt this. So Ilah means any deity while Allah means the Islamic God alone (which they lie and say means the Jewish and Christian one too).

The US is a definitively secular nation, founded on complete separation of the State and religion. The Left Wing of US realise this but don't realise that pure freedom requires as low tax and free access to guns as possible. The Right Wing of US don't realise that secular pure freedom means the LGBTQ+ and abortion agendas both end up in line with US's liberty-first ethos.

It is left-wing to be pro-life. You are backing poor babies being born at the inconvenience of the already-born. Go figure.

@GG


Good info Mr Goy.


So I better rephrase the question and say that the Mothership was emblazoned with the letters E.L.A.H.


But I don't suppose the Aramaic folk read English.


So I will have to rephrase again, assuming that the Mothership was emblazoned with Aramaic hieroglyphs.


But I'm not into Aramaic, and nor is my keyboard.


Such is how these things get misinterpreted, isn't it.

There isn't one official acronym for "God,"

 but it's often used in spiritual or personal contexts for phrases like Good Orderly Direction (G.O.D.) in A.A., or in creative interpretations like Generator, Operator, Destroyer (linking to Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva). In internet slang, "ONG" means "On God," meaning "I swear to God," while "OMG" means "Oh my God". 

Spiritual & Religious Meanings

  1. Good Orderly Direction: A common phrase in Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) for finding guidance.
  2. Generator, Operator, Destroyer: A Hindu-inspired expansion referring to creation (Brahma), preservation (Vishnu), and destruction (Shiva).
  3. Deo Optimo Maximo (D.O.M.): A Latin phrase meaning "To God, most good, most great," used by Romans and later Christians. 

Internet & Slang

  1. ONG: "On God," meaning "I swear to God" or "for real".
  2. OMG: "Oh my God," expressing surprise or excitement.

But Arab Christians still call God “Allah.”


I hear they may use different greetings and expressions to distinguish each other, but the word for God is still the same.

That’s because Muslims believe there is only one God and Allah is his name.

@SomeDebatePerson

Because they fear the Muslims and wont make their own third word.


Ilah means deity or god, lowercase g.


Allah means it with capital G but also specifically means the Islamic one.


The Arab Muslims set this up early on in Arabic linguistics intentonally.


The phrase:


"God is not Allah." Becomes impossible in Arabic. This is by evil design.

If Allah means God. It doesn’t make sense to say Allah is not God.

Allah literally comes from “al-ilah” which just means “the God.”


Plus, it’s a root word from el, which is where the Hebrew word for God comes in.

Jesus spoke Aramaic, and Aramaic has variations for words that refer to God, such as “Elah” and “Alaha”, which sound a lot like “Allah.”

@GreatfulGoy

I looked up how to say “God is not Allah” in Arabic and it came up meaning either “God is not a god” or “God is not the god (al-ilah).”


Also, I don’t think this is unique to Arabic. Isn’t the statement “God is not God” illogical in English?


Is means “the same as,” so it’s basic grammar. Saying “GreafulGoy is not GreatfulGoy” is a logical contradiction. It would be like saying 1 ≠ 1.

If you want the one truth out of anything you have said, here:


I did some research and it said that Arab Christians simply call God “God” when speaking English, while Arab Muslims may still use “Allah.”


It’s like transferring the concept of Allah into English. If you simply used the letters G-O-D when speaking Arabic to refer to God, you would be bringing your concept of God into the Arabic world.

yes but it also had El


El meant God that wasn't their Jewish one. Also, Islam and Arabic formed knowing rival religions existed with a different Elah!


They intentionally and with forethought set the language up to not allow the ability to say 'God is not Allah' whereas Aramaic was formed while only Judaism was prominent as a monotheistic faith vs polytheistic El and Elohim concepts.

Yes, 

"Allah" is the Arabic word for God, used by Arabic-speaking Christians, Jews, and Muslims to refer to the one, singular God, though Muslims consider it His proper name, emphasizing His unique oneness (Tawhid) as described in the Quran, a concept distinct from the Christian Trinity. 

Key Points:

  1. Meaning: "Allah" comes from the Arabic "al-Ilah," meaning "the God," derived from ancient Semitic terms for deity.
  2. Usage: It's the standard word for God in Arabic, used across Abrahamic faiths.
  3. Islamic Significance: For Muslims, Allah is the one, unique, eternal Creator, Lord of the Worlds, with no partners or equals, possessing 99 beautiful names (attributes) like The Merciful, The All-Knowing, The King.
  4. Contrast with Trinity: While Christians and Muslims worship one God, the Christian concept of the Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) differs from the Islamic understanding of Allah's absolute, indivisible oneness. 

In essence, "Allah" is the proper name for the singular, monotheistic God in Islam, but it's also the Arabic term for God used by other Abrahamic faiths.

You cannot question that which is endless.

The bible doesn't say that does it?

Matthew. Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

James.  If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Jeramiah. Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.

Moses questioned god. As did Isaiah, David, Solomon, Job, and many others. Even Jesus asked god why he had forsaken him, ( sorry I forgot, Jesus was actually asking himself that question) if we are to believe the bible.

In order to question something, you must be able to contain it. However, no human mind can contain that which is endless.


It is sort of like counting to infinity. You cannot do it.
