Nice post, but what is the G-d stuff? Just come out and spell it like it should be, God. I've seen others do this too, my question is why?

I agree. Is this the new ACLU version?

Its a little hat-tip picked up from Jewish writers, who believe that it is DISRESPECTFUL to write the name of God in full. It is meant as a sign of respect

Unless I'm mistaken, it's from Jewish tradition as a sign of respect towards God.
