If God is the one original cause and creator, then how would He create anything separate from, or outside of Himself? Would it not be logical to conclude that everything and everybody is part of God?

Absolutely true. This is the teaching of our culture Hinduism.
Any creation requires a material cause and an intelligent cause. For something cannot be created out of nothing and inert objects cannot create.
So an intelligent material cause which exists forever (it does not violate logic) is the cause of all creation.
In scientific terms, Hinduism states that
The effect cannot be different from the cause.
The effect is cause perceived in a different form.
When the effect cease to exist cause alone remains.
Is it not true. When ornaments of Gold are created, Gold is not lost. It is the same. Ornaments are created out of Gold and within Gold. Gold still exists. Ornament is a perception whereas Gold is the reality.
Similarly is the dream. The dream world is nothing but the dreamer. Each character in the dream world is created and has reality during the dream. They were creations not different from the dreamer himself. All of them would resolve into the dreamer.
The effect cannot be different from the cause.
The effect is cause perceived in a different form.
When the effect cease to exist cause alone remains.
So, in our culture we worship every being as God. All this is permeated by God (Ishavaasyam idam sarvam) is our Hindu Upanishadic statement.

you have hit the nail on the pinnacle yet you will in no way get a rational answer from a Christian. they'll say the familiar policies do no longer practice to their god, however the elementary certainty is there is not any info for his or her god mutually as that's sparkling the universe does exist. So in the event that they could their god (for which there is 0 info) can exist without a author, i can declare an identical of the universe (which needless to say does exist, in assessment to their god). they have no concept, experimental info, commentary, medical concept or philosophical argument to back up their empty claims.

Everything and everybody is not a part of God. Evil is not a part of God, nor is sin, deception, guile, the devil, etc. I am not a God and yet with my puny powers I can create things separate and outside of myself.

No. God existed before the creation, and He would exist if the creation was destroyed.
Think of an artist who creates a masterpiece. He is separate from the work of art, but the work of art is totally created by him. If the work of art was burned up, the artist would still exist.

You are correct.
Everything in the universe is a manifestation of God, and God is in everything that exists including these keyboardsm mice, computers, etc.

You are correct, everything is in God and from God. Apart from Him nothing came to be. You are a beloved creation of God and this world was made FOR YOU to experience and to enjoy. Cool, ain't it?

That is gnostic heresy. Lots of people died in the Albigensian crusade for believing that.
Give me that old time religion......
