The existence of a Physical God presents a superficial difficulty to a Flat-Earth Atheist however, the problem can be overcome by distinguishing a Physical God from whatever Powers That Be might or might not exist in the universe (considering the former to be "merely" ultra-powerful beings not different in principle from anybody else who happens to have similar levels of power, and applying the label "god" only to the latter.

The difference between them and non-divine characters is they don't have to be " balanced" in terms of other characters. Gods are often humanoid (easier for actors to portray them) and have a number of powers. Special effects and global story-telling exposure has expanded the concept. Mythology often depicted gods as "human, but bigger." Similar emotions, virtues, vices, etc.
