Why do you say that, OCM? When I say God, I just mean, by definition, that being than which none greater is possible (not imaginable, possible). I suppose it is possible (epistemologically, I mean) that that being I worship is not the greatest possible being. But that just means I'm mistaken about who I'm worshipping, not about what the word 'God' means.
