What if one changed the word "Gods" to "Hummingbirds"?

What would that really say? Can you really call that a definition? It seems limp somehow.
Right, BranShea, I was going to say that myself.
Like, take the word "hummingbird" for example, now there's an apt and logical name; not like "God", a contrived word bended by usage to fit it's own referent.
But maybe derSrik wanted just such a word. A word which underscores a great tolerance for the stupid, wild, and crazy beliefs of other people's gods. A word like...
________ poly- (or) mono -munificentheism _______
I like it.
