IIRC, the only reason the Higgs Boson is referred to as the “God” particle is because of a 1993 book. The author wanted to call the it the “God dammed particle”, but the publisher decided that was a bad idea.
Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner. The Higgs Boson particle has nothing to do with religion (although the nickname the “God Particle” was sure to offend some).
