"God" is not God's name, any more than "President" is obama's name.
"God" is a title, or perhaps, an office. A pronoun. I won't print His name here, because it is only to be used when one is deep in prayer and communion with Him, (or when reading it in the Bible) and then only sparingly.
Most of America's problems are cultural. Even our economic problems stem from the cultural rejection of personal responsibility and the acceptance of collective responsibility. And none of our problems would be as bad if the church was still shaping the culture instead of merely responding to it.

I have seen a number of churches that take the Name in vain - Some even include it in the name of the church!
