I am sure I am right.  Am I? Since about the time of the King James version of the Bible, it is a convention to capitalize He when reffering to the divinity in that book.  While referring to gods of other religions, not so.  Some newer versions [Serendiptiy, 1981, for example] have dropped the practice.

I'm certain it was no accident.  Many "modernized" denominations refer to God as He/She, Creator, Father/Mother, etc. Philip
