Yup. If God is real in the sense that it exists as a Platonic Form, there is no valid reason to disbelieve in faeries, pixies, Daleks, unicorns, giants, Vulcans, direct democracy, or honest lawyers.

Chemistry class might have been confusing, but one takeaway was that it is all chemicals.

B. He always was "living" in the sense that He *is* life - as the wellspring which pours itself out to give life and breathes it's life into others must itself be living.
How do you know this?
The first is a matter of deduction; a "Created Creator" is a logical paradox that infinitely loops around itself and would be directly contradictory to the Biblical account.
For "living material" the accounts of the Gospel tell us this, and for the "living as the source of life" the accounts of both the Old Testament and the teachings within the Gospel indicate this.

The surest sign of delusion is in having faith in something that isn't real.
