Damn right it is a rule, what do you think English is a language you can just make up rules and words for to use? That is why we've got the, uh, yeah, ya know whatever the english version of the Académie Française is called. It makes sure there is adherence to rules so general usage doesn't distort enGlish into people using it in unconventional ways to fit their own concepts. Oh god.

Newsflash guys, when atheists stopped capitalizing "god" because they felt the concept no longer needed a capital letter, then by common convention of mutability of language that became one of the correct ways to spell it.

Only dickbag atheists don't capitalize God; it was going beyond rejecting the concept and openly stating that the character created, named God, was no longer valid.

And I'm sorry, some people leaving God uncapitalized is no more a sign of "mutability" of language than idiots leaving out commas and calling it "evolving grammar." You're wrong. You can argue until you're blue in the face, but you are still wrong about this. Even Richard Dawkins capitalizes God.

Also, in case you were curious: I'm an atheist.

Oh, good. I wondered if someone who wrote that mess of a comment was either drugged out of their mind or an idiot. I'm relieved to know the answer is "drugged." :)

Newsflash, dude, atheists didn't start doing anything.

Some atheists stopped capitalizing God, because they are dumb shits who think ignoring the rules of grammar makes a grand point when all it does it makes them look like illiterate assholes whose beliefs are so weak they can be shattered by a shift key.

Actual, sane atheists, as opposed to the ones who couldn't actually argue their way out of a wet paper bag, write like actual, educated people, which includes proper capitalization.

I'm sorry, but the only time I'm going to capitalize god is out of respect when I'm talking to christians.

Who you have made it clear that you have no more respect for than you do for the English language.

Wow, grammar really pisses you the fuck off.

Get off your high horse and just let people write how they write. It's not hurting you.

'Don't write like an illiterate asshole' is not a high horse.

'I'm going to write like an illiterate asshole, because the rules of grammar don't let me display my beliefs in the most facile and unconvincing way possible' is.
