Well, -somebody- has to point out the gruesome side of this omnifiction. I think that most people who believe in this trash like to imagine their spirits using their superpowers for good (making rainbows or some such nonsense)- but this one, this superpower-is fucking ghoulish. If they want it, I think they should at least own it.
Case in point, GC's god -is not- present in those places. He just likes to use the word omnipresent, I doubt he'll be putting his god anywhere I might dream up (and to be blunt - that was just warmup - I can imagine worse...and god must be here, in my imagination as well....along with being in the minds of every sadist and nutbull. He was in Dahmers freezer, that's for damned sure, and on his knife when he made his fillets, and on his tongue when he ate his meal. God rode the wave of pleasure and sensation with every bite, like a particularly complacent partner to every act. A voyeur, sure, but much - much worse.)
The very simple reason that GC's god is not in any of those places is that GC is (presumably) not in those places. God, as always, is a puppet. An extension of ones self. Hates what GC hates, likes wat GC likes. Does what GC would do, refrains from what he would not. God is incapable of conceiving of or doing anything that GC himself is incapable of doing or conceiving of.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
