"Epic" "awesome" "revolutionary" "never before seen" "once in a lifetime"
Everything is hyperbole, to the point where "epic"--something that should describe the most important events of human history--is reduced to pressing buttons well in a videogame made for children
Not to say the Protestant core of the USA hasn't had something to do with it (it's the END TIMES, you're going to burn in hell FOREVER, God's love is INFINITE, etc.) but it seems like mostly a market construction
Comical how liberals do the whole "newspeak is coming" don't realize it has; don't need to ban words if you make them completely meaningless
"Freedom" means nothing, "revolution" means nothing, "just" means nothing, "socialism" means nothing, "democracy" means nothing

El, one of the precursors to the modern conceptualization of Hashem in modern Judaism, was a king-god figure akin to An or Zeus, complete with physical depictions and even a wife, Asherah. As Judaism developed, however, the idea of the pantheon was either left behind or intentionally quashed by rulers. The words to describe Him, however, stayed the same. Baal as a word meant lord, but became synonymous with competing cults, while El, which means both God and lord, is to this day considered a defining word for God in the names of people and places, ie, El-ijah, Samue-el, Isra-el, etc.
