Wanting Fauci replaced is not dumb. Fauci is obstructing Trump on the restarting of the economy over a stupid flu bug.Dumb dumb dumb.
You don't believe in god, do you?
"God," in your example is CAPITALIZED. Dont let hate make you ignorant of proper grammar

The English word god continues the Old English god (guþ, gudis in Gothic, guð in Old Norse, god in Frisian and Dutch, and Gott in modern German), which is derived from Proto-Germanic *ǥuđán.

Capitalization
The development of English orthography was dominated by Christian texts. Capitalized, "God" was first used to refer to the Judeo-Christian concept and may now signify any monotheistic conception of God, including the translations of the Arabic Allāh, Persian Khuda, Indic Ishvara and the Maasai Ngai.
In the English language, capitalization is used for names by which a god is known, including 'God'. Consequently, its capitalized form is not used for multiple gods (polytheism) or when referring to the generic idea of a deity. Pronouns referring to a god are also often capitalized by adherents to a religion as an indication of reverence, and are traditionally in the masculine gender ("He", "Him", "His" etc) unless specifically referring to a goddess.

If I see it in the right way then the capitalization of this word in the English language means "god" is a name of a god - as for example Shiva is name of a god in Hinduism. But god is not the name of god for me - in this case I would write "g'd" as the Jews are doing. God is the mode of being of god for me. God is what god is: god. He's a little more than only the universe, which is also what it is: the universe. Not capitalized.
But I accept your answer now in this way: You are evading. So you don't believe in god. You believe in spelling - in formal structures - not in modes of being. You argue with the formal structure, which you call "God"- but you are not shy to ignore god. Did you ever think about what Mr. Fauci had done in his long life - and is still doing - for your country? Would it not be better for you to respect a man like him, independent from any political opinion?
