Other gods

127 bytes added, 20:49, August 16, 2008
'''Other gods''' describes deities other than the Abrahamic [[God]] of the Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths. The term comes from the [[Ten Commandments]], where God said, "You shall have no other gods before me" ({{Bible ref|Exodus|20|3}}).Of course, you could just think logically and see that other societies had other gods and nothing much is special about yours!
While the word "god" refers, in a general sense, to any deity that is or has been [[worship|worshipped]] as part of a theistic belief system, when spelled with an upper-case "G," the term is normally referring to the God of the [[Abrahamic religions]].
