      Allah is actually an offensive word to other gods. You see, in Arabic, “ilah” is the word for a god. While “al” means “the one and only”. So Al-ilah, or Allah, is a term for a god that explicitly denies the existence of other gods. As a theophile, I believe all gods are beautiful, and refuse to stand for an insult against 99% of the gods.
