Naming them "God" and "Devil" was quite clever

Ever wonder what God's real name is? I do sometimes, because I'm a geek like that. It can't just be "God," right? And if there is an evil being in what we want to refer to as hell, his or her real name can't be just the "Devil," right? That'd be like me telling a kid a story about some leader named Marvelos, toppling the evil ruler named Bad.

"And King Marvelos went to Ruler Bad and said to him, 'You're bad, and you know it! It's time that you pay for all your wrongdoings!" King Marvelos did just that, defeated the evil ruler, and went on to create the world as we see it today.

Just look at the spellings. If you add one "o" in God, what do you have? Good. That would make for a catchy phrase or song. Wait a minute! That is a hymn!

"God is so good.
God is so good.
God is so good.
He's so good to me."

Hey, that's clever. If you sing that enough, it'll be implanted in your brain and whenever you see or hear the word "God," you'll be likely to associate that with "good."

On the opposite side of the spectrum, just look at the word "Devil." No, look at it closer, "dEVIL." See it now? Heck, if you want to fiddle with it more, you have the word evil and if you reverse the word, you have lived. So, with the devil, evil lived. Again, just by looking at or hearing the word, you easily start associating that with evil.

It's a very clever way to market the material. But, what are their real names? Billie Bob and Preston? Julius and Adolf? Lucy and The Wicked Witch? Shaquille and Kobe? Mick and Bubba? I just want to know. It can't just be "God" and "Devil." We can call them gods and devils, if we so wish, but that doesn't make it their name. Just because we're a certain gender, part of a particular background, or hold a certain job, that doesn't translate to being our name.

"Hey mailguy!"
"Hey newspaper person!"
"What's going on there dog trainer?"
"How you doin' old lady?"
"How's life, person?"

No, that just doesn't sound right. I'd never appreciate being called a name because of an occupation I held, because of my background, gender, or what have you. Perhaps this "God" and "Devil" feel the same way. Maybe they're ticked off that we don't call they by their real name. Marketing wouldn't be as easy, but word has already spread all over the world, so, what's the big deal anymore? Let's show some respect and refer to these people by their real name. The only question now is, what are their real names?
