上帝 is the Chinese word used for God by British Protestant missionaries.
Alternatively, I could use  神 (American Protestant Missionaries),
天(Traditional Chinese), or 天主(Roman Catholic)

et is the Latin for "and"

αγάπηy is pretty obvious.

On your password crib sheet, simply write the URL and verse.
Then have a set pattern for determining the pass phrase.
(Rotate between CJKV, Semitic, Latin, and Indus Valley based writing systems.)

See above.

It doesn't take any more effort to memorize a ten glyph password that
contains only the Latin writing system, than to memorize a ten glyph
password that can contain any character in Unicode Plane Zero, or even
in all sixteen planes of Unicode.

Most password crackers that use L33+ don't utilize spaces.  But yes,
you are right.  a space is not a preventative measure, except to the
extent that it increases the size of the potential passwords in the
acceptable Universe.
