If you are saying that God is an emergent property of a hugely complex universe
then you have got my attention.
God is something unknown.
For example: so-called "Nothingness" . . ." Zero Vacuum" . . . . . . .

Paul Dirac wrote:
‘ The problem of the exact description of vacuum, in my opinion,
is the basic problem now before physics. Really, if you can’t correctly
describe the vacuum, how it is possible to expect a correct description
of something more complex? ‘

‘If we were looking for something that we could conceive
of as God within the universe of the new physics,
this ground state, coherent quantum vacuum might be
a good place to start.’
