In the article, the Robert Lane Greenee explains that god his god is awesome and the word awesome has no honor left. i agree becusae god is a man so men are mortal, and global trend.
In every religous book that i have read and heard about so far, god is a man. In the bible its jesus, the koran its muhammad, in buddism it in buddha and so on.If god is a man, that mean all men are mortal, which is true. Everyone has a expiry date, and so did god.Since god is a mortal man, he is seen as like every other individual present on this planet. There is nothing awesome about a mortal man, therefore there is nothing awesome about god. In the past there have been wars fought in the name of god, first were the crusades, then came Palestine's and Israelites, and the start terrorist groups like the Al-Qaeda, killing in the name of their awesome god.
If this is the reality, then the term awesome will desecrate god. What is the point of fighting The bodies of the holly men didn't live on, but their name do.In the author article, he says that the word god itself meant awesome. But over the years, the word has lost its legacy. The word awesome is not fit to represent god, but dirt. The irony being that a word like"sick" means great, but the word"awesome" now means terrible.

As we know, that what happens in the past, stays in the past. Most like to move on, old ways are left out, its a global trend, and it happens everyday.Old methods of industrialization have stopped, english language and vocabulary is has changed, fashion keeps changing. The word awesome, has changed too. The article says it was first published in 1598, in the Oxford English Dictionary. The word has been around for 414 years to date, has gone through a process of changes. Teenagers have moved on, but the older generation stick on.
The word is symbol of change, it has played its parts in changing the thoughts and the faith of people who used. The word " awesome" may have been awesome in the older days, but since everything has a shelf life, the word has been recycled to portray a new, and opposite meaning will change how we use it. It is a pattern that will continuously repeat, and nothing can be done to stop it.
