Actually - the problem is that - the ONLY correct answer to this question is
"I would not actually exist"
Gods are fictional characters in religious mythology - and the mythology defines them in ways that cannot all be true - even for one - at the same time.
Now when you add that there have been more than 10,000 or more gods so far named - and they all have their own characteristics - there is really NO set meaning to that word god.
I think you're thinking too deeply about this.
