No. If we define God as omnipotence (and the mutually inclusive omniscience), then God controls everything in the universe. Humans, since we are controlling more and more at a relatively rapid clip, are becoming God. We are a very low level Demi God.
Becoming God is the Great Work in my ideology / religion. It's audacious (also completely inherent in our existence; it is what we are doing) but there are very many small wins along the path that we should strive for. And we are already striving for them, even if it's not with the express intention of becoming God.
Edit:
Moreover, we need to unite humanity. The Demi God that is humanity is also somewhat insane, with all of these competing wills and nations. We need to bring unity and sanity to our God.
So he went up to Eve and asked. Did you know that once you eat of this tree, you will be like gods?
Eve eats the fruit.
AND
............nothing happens.
Good luck being a god with all that power. (Not)
