It can't be the christian god because the god that Moses spoke to up on the mountain was a singular deity, not a three part deity. Also, I have yet to find an Eastern religion that worships the gods of western religions, and vice versa. That doesn't mean that there aren't any out there, but can anyone give me the name of the god that EVERYONE has heard of? Please try to remember that EVERYONE is not limited to just the people that go to your place of worship. Thanks everyone.
p.s. I ask this in response to an answer to one of my earlier questions, and I'd like to see how rampant this line of thinking is.

I can do better than that. I can give you the name of a god that not only has everyone heard of, but everyone has actually seen, (or at least felt in the case of blind people).
This god can be scientifically proven to exist. It can be scientifically proven that this god provides for the needs of mankind - such as food and warmth. This god can be scientifically proven to cause the rain to fall and the grass to grow. This god has the power that can cause storms. This god holds our world in its proper place.
Its one of the oldest gods worshiped by mankind.
Its the Sun.
(Of course, if you want a god that will actually answer your prayers, or really care much what you do, then - no, there are no gods like that that are universal.)

eastern religions are agnostic.
except for hindu, which believes there are many paths to truth.
what do you mean by EVERYONE, do you mean everyone who's ever lived?
what does hearing about it have to do with worshiping it? I've heard of isis, vishu, odin, jupiter, and Zeus but I don't worship them?
so that leaves the Judeo-Christian God. Allah is the arabic word for that Judeo-Christian God.
This is the closest you'll get. The concept of "I AM", that "skydaddy" if you will.
Because isolated tribes haven't necessarily heard of YHVH, but they probably believe in an all powerful god, in control of the other gods.
so has everyone heard of a specific god, no. But have everyone heard of the concept of the "I AM" kind of God? probably.
does this make any sense? probably not.

There are tribes in the back country of the Owen Stanley range in Papua New Guinea who would look askance at you if you tried to tell them of the existence of any but their tribal Gods. Therefore there is no God or Goddesses that can be said to be universally recognized or even heard of.

I believe in the power of the allmighty BMW M20 Engine.
I will let it guide my life and its 6 pistons shall save my soul for all eternity.
On the first day,BMW created the Engine block.
On the second day,The Pistons were created.
On the third day,BMW created the messed up cooling system that tends to overheat the engine sometimes.
On the fourth day,the Valvetrain was created.
On the fifth day,the spark timing was set.
On the sixth day,The Sexy-Looking-Intake Manifold was made.
And on the eight day,He went out for a drive.
And "My god can beat your god" ?.... =)) Hilarious,dude,nice one.
But remember "Thou shalt NOT forget to change the oil when changing is due,or your soul will rot in hell for ALL ETERNITY !! MUAHAHAHA!!! ...damn,too much coffee

The name of the God that everyone is aware of is the Tao (or Brahma, or the Oversoul, or the Great Spirit). It is an entity from which every soul has been derived, and that every soul will return to, and has not influenced life since Creation.

I am a Christian, and I don't believe that God is a three part deity. There is one true God. Psalms 83:18.

The Bible should be rated R. Harry Potter doesn't even compare. There are no genocides in Harry Potter. There are also bear maulings, child killings, or eternal torture.

The God I know and worship is a God of unconditional love.Incapable of anything other then loving his creation. He is nothing to fear or be afraid of. God is the one and only. Jesus was God's son, just as we are God's children .God is our father/mother and Jesus is our brother.
