Okay.
So if somebody asks me "Where is God?", I can reply "In Hell" and that would be correct.

God is in everything. Hell does not exist.

Yet again, there is hardly a definative answer, or even a halfhearted attempt at one! This is something I have come to expect from mindless followers who don't understand their own beliefs. I was hoping for an interesting answer!
But I agree, God cannot be omnipresent without being in "Hell". For those people that say Hell does not exist, or that hell is not a physical place, then why bother trying to get into "Heaven"? If not for eternal pain, suffering, burning and torture to inflict, there is no fear of God. Fearing God is what makes you follow his rules, and if you're very very good, he'll give you a gold halo and put you in Heaven. This is no different that Kindergarden: If you do your work and use your manners you get a gold star next to your name and a treat at the end of the day. But if you are bad, then you get a time out and no recess.

Who says God is not in Hell? If he is omnipresent, then he is everywhere, including Hell. This means he is everywhere because he has the power to be everywhere, not that he has been forced to dwell in a specific place.
Example, being omnipresent, God is also in all prisons. He is not a prisoner in prison, but he is nevertheless in prison in addition to being everywhere else.
Yes, you can say that God is in Hell, but if you were trying to be accurate, you would also say that he is also everywhere else, i.e. that he's omnipresent according to his believers.
I'm not religious, and I suppose you could call me an atheist. For me, this is just an exercise in deductive reasoning.

Therefore, when man is sinning God is there. If a child is doing something a parent has told him not to do, God is there. There is no place man can go to hide from God.
Scripture Support:
Psalm 139:8
If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.
This scripture is from the Old Testament and means the grave or Sheol. This was before Jesus death.
Before Jesus returned from death, He went to Sheol, which was the place of the dead. To preach to those who had died during the days of Noah. 1 Peter 3:19-20.
When we are born we are separated from God because of our sin nature. The acceptance of Jesus as our Lord and Savior and repentance (turning away from) of our sins, Is the only way we can be in fellowship with God and be allowed into Heaven.
After Jesus' resurrection, Ghenna is the place that the Bible refers to as eternal separation from God which, was created by God for Satan, his angels and those who do not accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. God WILL NOT BE THERE after the judgment although, He could be, if He wanted to be. Therefore He is omnipresent.

He is omnipresent! Job said, in Job 26:6-7, Hell is naked before Him, and destruction has no covering. He stretched out the north over the empty place, and hangs the earth upon nothing.(NOTE< this book was written thousands of years before science as we know it, who told him the world hung on nothing, how did he know except God told him!) Hell is naked before Him, He sees all by His Spirit, He is present in that reality, nothing is unseen by Him, by His Spirit. He is God , and though He is present by sight , it does not infer He LIVES there!What has light to do with darkness, and the temple of baal with the things and people of God? Though Yeshua (Jesus) did enter into the righteous side of the abode of the dead (with a large gulf between, the unrighteous on one side and righteous on the other) This was to show forth His power by winning back legal authority and power back from Adams surrendering his lea gal jurisdiction as keeper and tender of the earth) also Jesus lifted the righteous dead out of their graves, which many witnesses viewed walking through the streets of Jerusalem, and proceeded to bring them from the earth with Him to His Father in heaven as First Fruit Offerings. Yeshua Ha Messiah fulfilled ALL of The Feasts of The Lord, every jot and to the letter of the law and the prophets. He IS OMNI PRESENT and His Spirit goes where ever The Father wills it to go, and ALL things remain naked and fully exposed to His eyes, and Holy Power.

Yeah. I asked about this a couple of days ago and it got deleted. If Jesus is god, and if god is omnipresent, then Jesus is in Hell.

Hell is the absence of God...if he is there it is not hell. It doesn't bother me at all that he is not in hell yet remains omnipresent.

Don't you ever get tired of trying use your "intelligence" to bash God? Why not read the Bible from cover to cover a few times and try to understand it? Then if you want to discuss our differences I will be more than willing.

The whole Christian doctrine has more holes in it than a piece of swish cheese. Holes because it came from man, not a perfect being.

Hell is the Earth, but it's not kindled yet. God will kindle it and it will annihilate everything in it's path.
