Shall we remove "God" from the bible?

So what if Allah is not YHVH> By your logic, we should never call YHVH "God", as that is a GERMAN PAGAN TERM, is it not? We should burn all the bibles that use that word, because one should NEVER refer to YHVH by another name. Why is it acceptable to call YHVH "GOD" or even "G-D"?

Once again, you have yet to prove that any Arab countries have demanded that Allah be removed from bibles. You either claim that it's PC for Christians and Jews to use Allah, or claim that Muslims are against Christians and Jews using it (which is generally speaking, untrue). As a result, you're argument is a contradictory oxymoron. If it's "PC" (whatever that means any more)- well then, where's your proof? Dhimmi never gave any either. He's far too busy bashing me- and a lot of other people as well- to bother to do that.

No the site I mentioned does not refer to God, it refers to the Tati language. I posted it simply to give you background info on Tati, not background info on the word for God in Persian. You are more than welcome to visit your local library and research this interesting subject in further detail if you like.

Calling you a sanctimonious religious absolutist isn't calling you"names". It's a fitting description for your chosen belief system.
