They call God, "God." Because the Quran was revealed in Arabic and all Muslims are enjoined to memorize the Quran, most Muslims use the Arabic word for God, not the English word for God. Arabic speaking Christians also use the Arabic word for God, not the English word. The Arabic word that means "God," is Allah.

In the same way - The German word for God is Gott. German Christians don't worship a different God simply because the German language has its own word for God. Every language has its own word for God. Because those words are different does not mean that different religions worship different gods.

And every person's idea of God is different from that of every other person.

God doesn't care. God is bigger than anything we can think. We simply need to stop hating and fighting over our ideas,
