Exactly. What makes it a proper noun though? the fact that it's someone's name. So what, why do you capitlize proper nouns, I always thought it was sort of out of respect or at least acknowledgement of that person as being a person...

No, because fictional characters get capitalized too and you'll have a tough time arguing that G_d is somewhat less then a fictional character at the very least.
Maybe we should just do like the Germans and start capitalizing all nouns, then we could capitalize it when refering to Roman gods, Greek gods, Norse gods and random penguins that think they're a god.

Actually, if you know Greek or Latin G-d is traditionally refered to in the nuter sense, it's just that we don't have on in English so we default to male.

Neh. I don't care. I've assigned my own gender roles. I'm not sure about god, but I'm positive is satan has a gender, it's not male.

No, that would seem a bit too great a bow to TPWLP.
Perhaps we should use little tiny elves instead.

As compelling as the idea of a 'the realm of being eternally poked by Sarah' is, I still think we could do better.

I chose this name not. My english writing friend told me it would be a good name.
Who is this Jerrie that you speak badly of?
Also, I did not find the word "nuter" or b#$&*, or something similar to. What does they mean? Please inform of me.

Try putting 'emasculate' into your translator instead.

I think the curse of the Kennedy's should live on and Ted Kennedy gets assassinated hunting lovers who are disgruntled because he allied with John Kerry during the presidential race and Kerry wanted to ban hunting.

Furthermore, they want terrorists to kill us all so that we will be scared and let them declare the US a police state which is why they allowed 9/11 to happen.

Yes and then John Kerry would become president (or JFK would be reelected after coming back to life which won't happen) and establish the kingdom of the Antichrist by making our government a theocracy and giving the pope (aka the Antichrist) power to rule this country which would be horrible indeed.
