At the very least a plea to "God" is an acknowledgement that we human beings are less than perfect. "God" acknowledges or becomes a symbol of our very finest and highest ideals. Here is Truth and Justice, fair play and the end of racism and other divisive and pernicious evils that plague us. God is a title, not a name. To some, Allah is god. To others Yahweh or Jesus is god. The Great Spirit I can relate to. Some reverence Buddha or Krishna or still others only acknowledge their OWN highest and best inclinations. The point is that God or god, if you prefer points to that which is higher than our current state of affairs. We ought never to stop aspiring to improve.

If you are a non-believer, fine. But don't put the nix on those who do. By and large, they only want what is better for all. Those who don't, blaspheme when the say god or God and atheists who lie about their evil intentions are just as false and wrong as false religionists.
