Although if that were the case, then God would never have had to invoke one since the beginning of time. I guess that the idea of god using macros in terms of interacting with the physical world implies a somewhat more interventionist god, in which case the answer would probably be no. I doubt there's a "create stigmata" button when the observed cases differ so widely.
If God uses excel, God probably has a natural language processing command system.
I'm a language geek; I'm a physics newbie. How would the laws of physics function as macros?

I'm kind of thinking that maybe time itself is a God-macro.

I believe that God is a very interactive God, so this works with my paradigm just fine, it seems. Though I should ask why the use of macros would imply an interventionist God.

Well, I'm sure there wasn't a "create universe" button, either. :)

Why would He use Excel when Access can do so much that Excel can do, but can manipulate data more? :)
Well, it's a self-contained piece of code that, once triggered, sets off a series of events with a complex output. and it's a phased set of events that unwinds over time, with later operations depending on the earlier results as input.
