Brahma belongs to which category?

This item tests recognizing when a proper noun is used for a divine figure in a religion. Brahma is a Hindu deity, one of the creator gods in mythology and in religious scriptures. Because of that, it fits with Gods and religious texts—the term names a god, not a group, an adjective, or a nationality or language. It isn’t a group/institution, it isn’t an adjective form derived from a name, and it doesn’t represent a nationality or language. So the best category is the one that includes deities and their religious writings.
