What constitutes athiesm for God?

If athiesm is the absence of believing in deities, and God is the one and only God, is he then an athiest?

No, he believes in himself, doesn't he?

Unless he's a nihilist.

would that count? I know the Bible says that christ believes in humanity, which in return would mean GOD believes in humanity. And if god is in us all, i guess he would believe in himself without believing in himself. However, does a god believing in himself count as believing in a God? Whats makes a GOD?

He looks in the mirror every morning and says ",i'm good enough, i'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me."

No, he looks in the mirror and says, "Fair enough. You exist." 😛

He looks in the mirror and says "How can I not exist? Stupid atheists."

God believes in us. That makes him a humanist. 😮‍💨

No, god believes in other gods. Remember the ten commandments?

I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, you shall have no other gods before me.

Technically that does not exclude the existance of other gods. It merely says that God is above them.

Yep, the Bible admits the existance of others gods, but calls them false. Some gods it says do not exist, others are identified as demons.

But if I was the only person in existence, and I said you shall not have any other person as your friend except for me. Would you think I was a little off? There is no other person, so how could you have any other person as a friend? Even god knew that there was other gods. 😉

meh.
