Dr. Miceal Ledwith (What the Bleep) in his article "God as a Verb' states :
Given the limits on our abilities to know, it should long ago been obvious that, whatever god is, God is far more a verb than a noun. Furthermore, when are we going to realize that God as a verb has none of the psychotic, neurotic and insecure qualities with which traditional human-style descriptions of God have for so long had at their core, and which are so passionately defended by equally neurotic and insecure followers?
I assume he is not referring to himself. Although he says a lot of what God is not, the only positive attribute he gives to God is that he's more like a verb.
Does anyone have a different opinion of God?

I'm not inclined to promote this topic as written. The question is too broad for a good discussion topic. The differing opinions of God are all over this board.
Ideally, an opening post should consist of the topic question (narrowly focused) or statement being considered and the poster's own position concerning the subject. Some background information on the topic question is also good when the question could be perceived several ways.
Now if you want to present a argument for or against whether God is like a verb or not, then rewrite the OP to reflect that type of argument.
Let me know if you want me to look at the OP again.
