Hmm. #1, I looking for “God”, as per Genesis 1:2: _“Now the earth was empty and formless, and the spirit of God moved across the face of the waters.”_ However, that particular god’s name was Yahweh, and Christian missionaries _did_ translate “God” into “Gitchee Manitou” when evangelizing the Algonquian tribes. So I’ll accept it. #2 was correct. #3 was the Grinch, whose heart swelled three sizes when he saw the Whos singing in their village. DQ: Known for the arts? ---
