Yup, a "God" does not logically lead to a soul, an afterlife or any of the other rubbish. It's just been associated with such through popular stories.
A "God" is nothing but a creator which isn't allowed to be an ordinary being in another reality. But the thing is, if there is one, he'll be ordinary. Or more likely, he won't have realized he even created anything.
Think about what "afterlife" means for a second. It would be like a character in a computer simulation we made coming out of the simulation and literally existing in our reality. Yes, that is ridiculously dumb and there's no reason to assume it's even possible.
