But when the apostle Paul said that ones own belly could be a god he wasn't talking about the supernatural. The word god itself doesn't imply supernatural.
No, perhaps in a strict sense the word god does not mean a supernatural being, but maybe it's simpler to agree that the common use of the word god (and especially God) implies a supernatural power? Which brings up the point that you keep making about how atheists cannot deny that there have been created gods. Clearly you're right, but that's not really the point of the discussion.
