An absentee landlord is one who does not live on the premises. For example, if you rent the top floor of a townhouse and the landlord lives two towns over, then he is an absentee landlord. If he lives downstairs from you, then he is not an absentee landlord. Some people prefer absentee landlords because they think that one that lives in the same building will complain about every minor offense or imagined wrong that you do.

Not sure what you mean. If you mean can a landlord discriminate in renting on the basis of religion, NO. If you mean can a landlord use the word "God" in speaking to you as a tenant - that's a matter of civility and if it offends you, you should politely ask whether the landlord could not use God's name when speaking with you. There is no guaranty how the landlord will react.
