It kinda does. From an atheist perspective I don't 100% get the need to call oneself "one's own god" - I don't see how the term can be meaningful here using the usual definition of gods - so I suppose it's more like a thing to distance oneself from theists specifically by using a language they understand?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
