424. How nicely intellectually dishonest of you to ignore the 4th definition.
The poster didn't say that the word never had a divine context. The poster just pointed out that the word doesn't have to have a divine context. It doesn't. Merriam Webster has the non-divine meaning as number 2. Is that better, or do we have to ignore every meaning of a word except the first one listed? I'm sure I could parse your post and find a case where you used a word in its second or lower context according to some dictionary.

And before you jump to a conclusion about my religious beliefs, google me. I've been an atheist most of my life and have not one religious bone in my body. You're not an evil atheist. You just jump to hateful conclusions based on your own demons. Ooops. I used another word that could have religious or secular connotations, didn't I? I guess "my" Jesus would not approve.
