I'm not so sure, for example if the Greeks say they "we obey the Gods on My Olympus" I would think it's usually written lowercase in that case, as well as for other polytheistic gods. capitalizing the "G" was specifically introduced when doing bible translation as the bible often mentions other 'gods' and sometimes often refers to the God of the bible ( YHWH ) as the 'One true God' | |
