Either God is composed of something or God is composed of nothing.
If God is composed of something then what is that something and where did it come from?
If God is composed of nothing then what are we talking about?
God is often described in nots: not material, not physical, not visible, not natural, not perceivable, not comprehensible and not mortal. Amen! It appears that God is not much of anything and yet he/she/it is also described as perfect, omnipotent, omniscient, omni-benevolent, omni-present creator of the universe. How nothing can possess these latter characteristics and perform these great feats is no longer a mystery. Fictional characters can be anything we want. They don't even have to make sense.
Facetiously, a conclusion to the foregoing can be drawn: if God is nothing then nothing created the universe which would imply that the universe is eternal.
Perhaps in the matter of deities a Delos McKown quote is appropriate: the invisible and the non-existent look very much alike.
