It does not matter if there is or isn't a God in this instance, the syntax and context is crystal clear on it's ancient usage and meaning.
Which is why I use the Superman example, the lore is crystal clear: He is weakened by kryptonite, not samsonite.
"Don't be silly, Superman doesn't exist outside of fiction. So what weakens him is irrelevant to our reality."
