Yes it's possible that a majority of those fluent in the English language could have decided that the ASCII sequence "God" means the unknown ultimate/absolute reality, *BUT THEY DID NOT*; instead they decided that sequence means a intelligent conscious omniscient omnipotent PERSON who created the universe. In any language the majority is always always always the final authority on what a word means. The fact that you absolutely positively insist on using nonstandard meanings tells me you're more interested in vocabulary than you are in science or mathematics or philosophy or even theology.
