I am seriously confused.....like God is supposed to be god right? Like the almighty powerful...but cannnnt Flash just speed steal/imp/use super speed intelligence to just beat god? Why has Flash not done this yet? Flash should be god...
pepole with superpowers that are instruments of faith = gods regardless of origin
I can understand that Thor may be a god but how is Wonder Woman a goddess?
She is the child of Zeus and Hippolyta, how is she not a god?
demi godess, I'd wager
or a heroine - as in the classical term of hero, not out modern definition. that's what halflings of gods are usually paired in
I'd say we don't know enough about current Wonder Woman's origin to say one way or another. Because lets be honest she believed the made from clay story until it was later revealed that Zeus was indeed her father. So demi-goddess there, except that we later find out that there is something going on with her bracelets that may or may not be limiting her power to the levels that it currently exists at... so I'd say wait and see at this point.
The whole idea of Wonder Woman and Thor being actual gods never really made sense to me. It makes the whole religious aspect of the universes convoluted, and I think Diana and Thor are arrogant enough without being put on a pedestal like that. So even if they are technically gods I refused to acknowledge them as so.

They are not Gods as in real Gods. Marvel/dc uses it as a title, so it's not related to actual Gods..
You can call myth versions Gods. any myth God>writer>whatever character he comes up with.

I'm not trying to be a grammar nazi, but you would actually refer to them as a "god" not "God". There's a difference.
Regardless, I still refuse to call them any variation of the word.

pray tell, what's the difference? I never get the thing lol
I get that you have to use a 'G' when referring to an actual God, while you can use 'g' for anything that's not one, but used as a title.
So I should be using 'G' for God thor, and 'g' for marvel god thor, right?

I could be wrong but I think when using a capital G you're referring to a monotheistic, omnipotent God where as when using a lower case g when referring to polytheistic gods like the Greek or Roman religions.

@battle_forum_junkie: Also, logically we can rule out anyone who responded to the thread. And since the OP has 4 posts, it is reasonable to assume that this is an alternate account. ...time to flag it...hehehe
Uhh plenty of them have feats and capabilities that exceed those shown in holy scriptures, I am a religous person IRL but when debating in the context of fiction I treat it objectively.
@charetter115: I see. That's the point lol no one is sure..
@nerx: Comics use God as a title. So sok shooting God isn't that much of a big deal. Only Godlike thing in comic is toaa, I don't think sok can shoot him. and toaa=writer< God.
IRL theists (myself included) say that God is supreme being
In fiction that is not true (God/Yahweh/Jehovah can be killed and manipulated), in fiction writer is god (no two ways about it) it is sickening that pantheons get reduced while angels/demons/abrahamic religion get five star treatment. SoK shot the dude in the bible.
