I played this song in the car once with an Atheist friend and he looked at me incredulously. He thought it was a Christian rock song because he was concentrating on the hook to much.
God Made Me actually doesn't appear to be championing belief as much as it's apathetic towards it:
"If only I could love my neighbor"
"We'd love to be good but we'd rather be bad
But how was I supposed to know that?"
It almost seems like a cry for guidance, and more so than the general religious indoctrination:
"God made me
That's what they told me before
Who knows what they'll say today?"
So it's not really a pro-God song, nor is it claiming disbelief in one, but seems to point the finger at the concept of sinning (which comes from Religion, which is really just a bureaucracy that surrounds God, but isn't necessarily connected to one)
"Imagine my eyes when I first saw
We can do what we want"
