God, viewed as the ultimate supreme entity, can be,
as Einstein viewed it, nature, though usually it is not
perceived in that manner, by most, due to their reli-
gious exposure, growing up.

God is a 3-letter word used for whatever humans wish
to attach to it, from

• ultimate "reality" to ultimate "fantasy",
  
  
• from ultimate "be-all end-all human-centric entity
  creating -and- ruling over everything" to ultimate
  "unknown",
  
  
• from that which humans attach importance to in the
  physical materialistic world, to that which humans
  love, fear, worship, and talk to as if it's a listening
  and responding entity existing everywhere and
  nowhere as the ultimate paradox, doing everything
  and nothing as if just by imagining it exists, one can
  create a supernatural reality controlling everything
  while simultaneously disclaiming that supernatural
  reality as being in control of things for which other
  explanations are desired,
  
  
• from that which humans dismiss as ancient myth,
  to that which humans follow out of tradition, custom,
  law, parental admonition, social-cultural pressure,
  religious indoctrination, desire for immortal bliss,
  desire for a superbeing sky buddy, and/or fear of
  immortal torment.
