:I don't find it offensive, but I agree that the page should be moved. Wikipedia uses [[God]] for the monotheistic figure and [[Deity]] for gods in general, a much better solution which also avoids the need for disambiguation. "Mythology" isn't really accurate anyway, as God is also a philosophical concept, etc. [[User:PintlessMan|PintlessMan]] [[User talk:PintlessMan|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:12, 20 January 2023 (UTC)

::Yeah, this dab term is a bit insensitive. [[Mary (mythology)]] is another candidate for renaming in this light. It probably wouldn't be hard to come up with a better dab to replace (mythology) on these pages as well as [[Zeus (mythology)]] et al. Maybe something as simple as (religion)? – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 21:32, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
