Also, but not just, if we consider classical theism (pantheism), then there would be nothing that God isn’t. As God, if we would think of God as the foundation of all being, could not be anything that isn’t. Since what isn’t is without foundation.
Also, but not just, if we accept panentheism, where God is everything that is and isn’t.
Not at all in the dualistic theistic view where there is a distinction between what God has put in motion, the physical world, and the heavenly realm where the souls/angels/God resides. In base a distinction between the subjective and the physical.
Basically the only time that anybody would accept God as ‘made out of atoms’ is if that person accepts the inherently and mostly explicitly atheistic view of metaphysical physicalism. Arguing for God from physicalism is like arguing for social healthcare as a (US) republican. There is an inherent disconnect between the two.
The great thing about your imagination is that anything can become true if you believe it.
your mom is made of atoms
We simply cannot answer that. Nothing in our models can lead to omnipotence, so there is no way to theorize about it.
We would need someone to propose an explanation that we could test.
To have created the universe, God has to exist outside of / independently of it. Therefore probably not made of atoms.
Fun fact - according to most christian thinkers/speakers I’ve listend to, this makes Christianity incompatible with pantheism (the belief that God is the universe, often referred to as “we are the universe experiencing itself”).
ETA:

same would apply for various other religions, christianity is the one i’m most familiar with
Look into the kabbalistic concept of tzimtzum, it’s an interesting take.
Yes. All of them.
You take one part determinium, spin it causationally, add two parts euphorium (seasoned to taste), mix well in a negative space-time bowl, finally sprinkle with sarcasm spice. Boom. Done. Easy.
According to the bible, God has created light, space, time, matter etc. This is a strong hint that he is not made from such things.
The Bible also says God walked the earth like a regular man
God was created by the Old Ones, and exists in dreaming slumber.
Clearly he would be made entirely out of Higgs-Bosons. (aka the god particle)
It was never meant to be called the god particle.
The Higgs boson is popularly known as the “the God Particle”. The name originated from Nobel Prize-winning physicist Leon Lederman’s book on the particle which he titled the “Goddamn Particle” – owing to frustration over how difficult it was to detect.

I’d rather doubt it. I tend to think of God as the original uncaused action.
But the most important thing is to have a healthy scepticism towards anyone who claims to have definitive knowledge of God.
The religion book we studied at school literally argued that God exists because everything must have a creator.
Like… what? Then who created God?
I wouldn’t believe my own comment if I was someone else and hadn’t read that book with my own two eyes.
God was created by the Old Ones, silly.
If god were real, and created the universe, I’d think that its existence would be described as something that just is. There is no start or end, no body to observe, nothing to communicate with. In the way that this supreme power would exist, there is no way for us to quantify it.
Maybe it’s excited oxygen molecules?

So, dark matter, then?

This seems to me like the same kind of question as the one about werewolves in space. If you’re going to make up some lore, make up whatever you want!
God does not exist.
This being was created to give people something to hold on to and was also intended to oppress people and women in particular.
That’s not what the question was about, but thank you for your perspective, fedora neckbeard redditor
Prefer open suse and arch based distros
As with most things, I assume religion was originally created with an intent to understand the world and to improve things for everyone. Ignorance reinforced the beliefs, and eventually someone figured out that they could use it as a tool to control people.
Religion is a series of documents that conveyed safety regulations and fictional stories about morality which were eventually misconstrued as divine guidance.
The implication that women are not people is fuckin nuts dude
Thanks for reporting, thinking in 1 language and writing in another language lead to errors ,I correct it
Ahh. Much clearer with the edit lol
What are the thoughts in our heads made of? I’d imagine any god to be made of much the same.
They are made up of electrical impulses. So that would imply you need some kind of device to run god on.
If i had to pretend to be religious id say dark matter/energy has the best chance so far
dark matter/energy
These are just holes (or errors) in our current physical formulas LOL
Literally “god of the gaps”
