Definitions
Goddist is informal slang for a person who believes in God — particularly a monotheist, someone who holds to the existence of a single deity. The term is typically used in online spaces, often by atheists or agnostics as a somewhat clinical or wry label for theists, though it can also be used self-referentially without any negative connotation. It treats belief in God as a descriptive category, on par with terms like 'atheist,' though it lacks the formal usage that established religious vocabulary carries.
The debate forum was split pretty evenly between atheists and goddists, and somehow everyone stayed civil.

An Indian English term for a charismatic male spiritual leader or self-proclaimed guru who claims divine powers or special access to the divine. Godmen often attract huge followings, build ashrams, and wield significant social and political influence in India. The word carries a healthy dose of scepticism — Indian media regularly uses it when reporting on fraud cases involving self-styled holy men who exploit devotees. It's a shorthand for the uncomfortable intersection of faith, celebrity, and alleged manipulation.

The undisputed apex of simp behavior — someone so thoroughly devoted to another person that their sacrifices transcend normal levels of embarrassing dedication. A simp god doesn't just write love poems at 2am; they fund entire lifestyles, cancel plans without hesitation, and accept every excuse. Used mostly with ironic reverence on social media, where the title is both a roast and a reluctant badge of honor. If you've been crowned simp god by your group chat, you might want to log off and do some self-reflection.
