capitalizing pronouns

[katelyn]

Do you capitalize pronouns that refer to God, Jesus, & the Holy Spirit? I used to capitalize pronouns for all of them, but lately have not been capitalizing those referring to God (I think I stopped because I noticed that in my Bible they are usually not capitalized.) I do however still feel compelled to capitalize when it's referring to Jesus. Does anyone know a set rule for this, or do you think it's a style preference thing?

typically i do in certain religious circles but general professional style guidlines are that pronouns for God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are not capitalized.

i think you'll find that your publisher or webmaster will have a preference that guides the decision in the end as each good publication has its own style guide.

That's good...that means someone else will make the decision for me.
