Not sure what you mean. If you mean can a landlord discriminate in renting on the basis of religion, NO. If you mean can a landlord use the word "God" in speaking to you as a tenant - that's a matter of civility and if it offends you, you should politely ask whether the landlord could not use God's name when speaking with you. There is no guaranty how the landlord will react.
Yes, depending on the terms of your lease and fair housing and other applicable laws. You would need to be far more specific in your question.
Landlord tenant laws can cover quite a bit of area. What specifically are you seeking? Are you curious about this from the standpoint of a landlord/prospective landlord or a tenant? If you want a good general overview checklist a good site can be found at http://www.tenant.net/Other_Areas/Ohio/landlord.html Another good resource (from the landlord side of the table) is the fair housing act series at www.findthatqualitytenant.com. The link to this is http://www.findthatqualitytenant.com/fairhousing.html

The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, known as the HUD, has the role of providing fair and affordable housing to all citizens of the country. Some common programs that are regulated and offered by the HUD include subsidized housing and public housing such as section 8. Low income families can qualify for HUD's programs, such as public housing. Interested applicants need to apply with their Local Public Housing Agency, which will then find the appropriate apartment in a desired neighborhood. The HUD is also responsible for enforcing laws such as the Fair Housing Act, which prevents discrimination against tenants and home buyers.
State's establish laws that pertain to rental/lease agreements and landlord/renter issues. Contacting your state housing authority should help you obtain the information you need.
