As the article mentions, there is something of a history of the god concept which does align it with 'mystery', as opposed to the anthropomorphic entity which nobody with half a brain could entertain for five minutes. As for your example, if there was any kind of history at all of the word 'shit' being used in place of the word 'discussion' you might have a point, but since there isn't then I would have to conclude that you are talking pure discussion.
