A god known simply as God or the Lord was a powerful figure who existed, or was speculated to exist, in many universes.
According to one account, “God” existed in every reality in the Multiverse that contained a version of the planet Earth. He was one of the only such five constants across Earth-worlds, the others being “gravity, numerical facts, the self-organising principle of Nature, and Jenny Everywhere”. (COMIC: The Freak Issue)
The Christian religion worshipped God, (COMIC: By The Book, The Legend of Jenny Everywhere) including as “Jesus Christ”. (COMIC: The Legend of Jenny Everywhere) One of its commandments was “to have no other God before Him”, although Jenny Everywhere argued that this would not prohibit the worship of “lesser” deities (or angels), nor forces of nature, so long as they were understood to be lesser than God Himself. Brother Martin, a close-minded missionary she met in Guatemala in one universe, evidently disagreed. (COMIC: By The Book) God was mentioned in some religious-tinted Christmas carols, including God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. (PROSE: The Copper-Colored Cupids go Caroling)
In Reality Z-25 31-H, when asked if he believed in souls, Section P leader Sir James Carey claimed that he had “seen more than enough evidence to believe in God, Good, Evil and Devils”. (COMIC: Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 3)
In another universe, God was well known for drawing Ineffable Plans, which remained impervious even to His angels. This fact could be both comforting and frustrating for His angels. He was also known as “the Lord”. (PROSE: You've Been to Eden, I Perceive)
In the Collapsed Cosmos, Jenny Everywhere was told by a mysterious librarian to “beware of God”, among other things, as part of a cryptic prophecy. Jenny later came to believe this was a veiled reference to the godlike artificial intelligence ARCHONET. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)
When the Jenny Everywhere of Reality 18 was transported by the Key of Enecloog to a hellish mindscape of all her dark thoughts, she heard the “angelic voice” of her and Jenny Nowhere's mother, speaking “above me, so distant, telling [them] that Jenny and I are at stake and that God isn’t afraid”. (PROSE: The Apocryphal Journeys of Jenny Everywhere)
In one universe, when she took her out on Epiphany, Jenny once told Laura Drake that “it wasn't that long ago that people celebrated Twelfth Night with feasts and revels”. A critical Laura remarked that aside from Jenny, only “God-botherers” remembered these traditions anymore; Jenny quipped that she would "let sleeping gods lie." (PROSE: Watch the Skies)
As an idiom
It was not unusual for people to swear in God's name purely as an expletive, with no actual intent to summon God, nor necessarily belief in Him. Nowhere was this more apparent than with the vampire Ibdis, who once used the phrase in one universe. (COMIC: Eldritch A-bowl-mination)
In Reality Z-25 31-H, David Cameron once swore “Oh, God”. (COMIC: Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 6)
In the 925th Universe, such phrases as “thank God”, “God” or “God no” were commonly used, even by the occultist Lady Satan. (PROSE: A Very Jenny Over-There Christmas)
Jenny Everywhere once thought the phrase “for God's sake” when remembering the Hyperspace Tyrant she once encountered. (PROSE: A World of Pure Unimagination)
Impersonations
Doctor Know once stated that “the Beanie Babies wiki call[ed] [him] God” as the last in a long series of self-aggrandising titles and aliases. (PROSE: Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division)
