Which is exactly why it it's so obvious that it was created by the minds of men. It doesn't make sense to our understanding of the world/physics and the only argument anyone has comes down to "well if this all powerful God I can't prove did exist he'd be able to do all of this in a way we can't understand!"
Sure, but anyone can theorize an all powerful omnipotent being and then make up whatever rules about them damning/saving you and the necessary conjecture about them being so beyond us that we can't understand it.
To me that's just a shield against criticism, a red flag that the person making the argument is attempting to bring it into the realm of unfalsifiability. A very human tendency for a very human idea of god.
