A Thought Experiment about God

I came across this while I was surfing the internet (but have no idea where it was, as I forgot to grab the site address), and thought it was something interesting to think about. I'm a big fan of thought experiments, and enjoyed this one.

If there is a God, or a Universal Energy, and that energy is everywhere in everything, then everything about YOU must be made up of that. If God is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent, then everything that you are is God and as such those qualities are inherent in you. If everything that you are is GOD, then what you are must be omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent.

Thought experiments are fun if you take the time to actually think about it. Most are very easy to just dismiss outright or agree with, but that defeats the purpose. The idea is to think outside of the box, to explore all the different possibilities and options.

How do you think this example goes along with, or against, a Christian line of thought?
