"'god' is a generic name for any number of imaginary deities, whereas Zeus, Apollo etc are proper names of individual fabled entities"

Mr Happy ~ Sorry; you are just plain WRONG. The 4th word of the AV of The Bible, & all other versions I have come across, give 'God', thus printed, as the actual PROPER NAME of the deity thus referred to on every occasion of his mention throughout the entire 68 Books. That just happens to be what he is CALLED by the adherents of the two religions whose holy book this is. I agree that all the other deities, 'Zeus, Apollo etc', are referred to as 'gods'; but God with a cap G is an actual referential proper name, just like theirs; so grammatically requires a capital letter ~
~ for God's sake!
