Yes. The Church teaches that.
When God the Son became human in Jesus, God infused all matter -- molecules, atoms, quarks, whatever -- with His divine spirit. Now, human flesh and all nature contains God's divinity.

Not necessarily, but what is interesting is when Christians say god is in everything and works through everything. Then the question of latent divinity becomes more appropriate.
You might read up on Spinoza, a modern philosopher who said that basically all of our conception of god was/is crap and god is nothing like what we think. You might like it.

I have a 1993 Mercury Grand Marquee with some rust spots on it. Does that mean that Mercury builds rusty cars? No. It means that the once shiny, perfect car that rolled off the assembly line has become corrupted by this world.

Everything was divine and perfect until sin came

Yes! This is a popular view of pantheism; that God is in everything. I happen to fall somewhat under this category, believing that all of creation has a little bit of God in it and that creation is itself like a piece of art, and God the artist. Pieces of PIcasso and Monet and van Gogh are implanted in their works, and I suspect the same thing when observing creation.

I think you should say yes, because otherwise, if you answer no, then you wouldn't be considered divine.
I suppose you were thinking about bugs and other creatures, ugh, to that. I try to avoid them as much as possible.

If you made a paper airplane, would it be alive?
