The chaos is also physics.
I don't think science and "god" are mutually exclusive in any way. I'm not religious. And I don't see a face. But I can appreciate the grandness, the order and disorder, and also see something I'd call divine. If science, if everything as a whole, just being, isn't "god" I don't know what is.
We already have a word for everything. The word is 'everything.' No need to redefine what 'god' means to make it fit into the grandeur of the universe. It isn't necessary at all.
I'm an atheist, and it's mostly a joke. The image becomes pareidolia for me, and I'm sure I'm not alone. Just because we have a scientific name for everything doesn't mean we can't enjoy comedic wordplay and poetic imagery.
