God gave Himself the title FATHER therefore to say that is wrong or that it is in need of change is to say that God was wrong and that HE needs improvement!!!

If you have the ability to change HIS name so as to be more inclusive what about those who want to be more inclusive of Islam by saying when we witness to them we use the term allah instead of God do we accommodate them as well by changeing HIS name?
