God always was. No one created him, he never even was created. He just is. I don't understand how that's possible either, but I also believe that humans cannot possibly understand many things. We don't know what it's like for anything to be perfect, to be forever, or anything like that.
I think his actual thought process was deeper than simply the magnet itself. Why do elements react the way they do? Why do they actually attrack or repel each other? If you break everything down to the smallest possible piece, there's an infinite amount of unknown questions that no one on Earth will ever know the answer to.
As for the existence of religion... I am a Christian, and I believe it's the only correct religion. Even if it's not, I use religion to try to better myself and to potentially serve others. It's a fascinating concept in itself that changes people's behaviors for the good of the world. The idea of religion at the very least is something great for everyone. It doesn't even matter if you believe it's real or not, it is real because we (humans) make it real, and allow it to change our lives to better ourselves and others. I honestly wish athesists would believe in a religion - any religion. It's pretty humbling to believe in someone infinitely more powerful than you. I personally think religion causes a great outlook on life, and it also helps tremendously at death to believe that you or someone else is not actually dying, but rather just leaving the human world and going to Heaven.

Before I was a Satanist, I was Atheist, and before that, Christian. I've bounced around religions before, but while I was atheist I felt like a better person, because I didn't have to worry about a God judging my every move, and asking for forgiveness everytime I broke one of his/her many, many rules. When I followed God, and the Christian religion, I felt a tremendous amount of pressure to follow rules that made no sense to me, and to follow a God that I never really believed in, in the first place. I understand where you're coming from, wanting people to believe in something, but sometimes it's nice to just live life by the day, and not worry about the afterlife or someone watching over you.
