You could say it's a different God in the sense that the slightest alteration to a religion makes it a new religion, with this a totally seperate instance of "God". Sorta like an altered copy of a program or something...
Anyway, you can't say the G word, or the J word! It's against standards and practises!
You see Jesus-
Voice: NO! UNACCEPTABLE!
Um, let's call him Je-wizzz... Je-wizz could offend some people, idiots mostly, so we can't mention that. Here are other things we can't have.
Watch how this nun reacts to this point-blank shotgun blast. *BANG* *nun's head is gone replaced with blood fountain*
Voice: NO! UNACCEPTABLE!
Okay, now let's alter that scene. *BANG* *nun's head is severed, but instead of blood, a rainbow comes out of there*
Voice: Yes, Acceptable!
There, looks like someone's about to get an A! Remember, standards and practises are all about keeping new and funny ideas away from you, the viewer.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
