Yes God is much like imaginary numbers, a fundamental part of how the human mind can create abstract tools to explain the structure of reality. Although a fiction or abstraction, some of these fictions can be very useful. Other fictions have outgrown their usefulness.

True, the analogy, like all analogy, does break down quickly.
