I know this wasn't addressed to me, but I wanted to point out that the way  
he used the word "god", it was not a name, and therefore not being  
capitalized is correct.  I didn't read any disrespect in his comment.  The  
usage was the same as if I were to say "Most of the tribe believed in a  
short god with fiery eyes."  His usage only seemed offensive because it  
referred to your particular god -- just as the natives of the tribe I just  
mentioned might be offended at my sentence, while you would not.

He would have drank them if he had them.  :-)
