God Glop

"At some point all our 'gods' must make room for God. Bede Griffiths at the end of his life spoke of how unfortunate it is that we can't find another word for God, because that word is so loaded with all our conceptions. The case is often the same with all our 'God language' which comes out of our mouths sounding like so much undigested glop, quack-quack."
