Why is "god" capitalised? I'm pretty sure Cicero wasn't monotheistic.

This phrase taken from the book "De nātūrā deōrum" ("On the Nature of the Gods", and here name is capitalised only because it's a book title).

BTW, shouldn't it be "a god"?

I don't know but I feel that this is somewhat of an accepted translation.

They I suggest capitalising Deus in Latin translation to majuscule too. These weren't differentiated in Latin in that time anyway. ^^

I'll capitalize every letter then, since the Romans were also fond of those things.

I think I've found the source of the quote:

XXXIX. At subuenire certe potuit et conseruare urbis tantas atque talis; uos enim ipsi dicere soletis nihil esse, quod deus efficere non possit, et quidem sine labore ullo; ut enim hominum membra nulla contentione mente ipsa ac uoluntate moueantur, sic numine deorum omnia fingi, moueri mutarique posse.
