So what happens when God comes out?

Let's say he appears and says he's a Catholic. Do all the people who believe in other deities start shitting bricks?

Who does God believe in? Is he an atheist?

Almost all concepts of a deity rely upon the concept of faith, or the unknowable/unproveable. Your hypothetical is in conflict with that concept.
