God is in our hearts?

Could the qualities of omnipresence, omnipotence and omniscience be possible without intelligent lifeforms to conceive it?

Does God, in the religious sense, acheive these qualities by existing "in" our hearts in times of need? But how do we define "need". Is "need" merely the feeling that arises as a defence mechanism against the horror of unreality and "anti-creation"?

Their seems to be an emotional tendency towards God where science is absent. But if God possesses the above qualities (the three O's), science cannot bereft God despite our claims.

The argument from transhumanism suggests that intelligence is inevitable and that it can evolve to the point that it eventually embodies the three O's.

Maybe. But I don't see the point of the question. "Omni" reality is not currently comprehensible to us. It's an imaginary possibility that we are not capable of experiencing in our current form.

Yet this incomprehensibility does not exclude the possibility of it being real.

My issue seems to be with you being a contradiction of sorts. You claim to be a theist, yet you demonstrate a poor understanding of the three O's.
