    What constitutes a god, or a divine being? Is a god necessarily omniscient, or does s/he just know more than we know? Is a god necessarily all-powerful, or just more powerful than us, or than humanity as a whole?

    Does a god have to be perfect to be a god?

    I don't mean this just in a literal sense. If you are or were a person who didn't know yet what you believe, if you're undecided: is it necessary for you to accept any of those conditions to believe that someone or something exists beyond your normal realm of perception?

    No. Throughout history, just about anything and everything has been acknowledged as a god -- physical and ethereal.
