not according to quantum theory. apparently the building blocks of matter (quarks and gluons) pop in and out of existence all the time - which means the subatomic particles that make up the matter in your body are constantly popping in and out of existence according to theory (don't ask me - too weird) Anyway, i got no problem believing in God.
Particles don't pop in and out of existence as we understand that term. They don't go from nothing to something and then back to nothing. Rather their states of existence change from those for which we have detection methods to those for which we have none.
We know that dark matter exists, for example, but we don't currently have any method of detecting it directly. It may be that particles change from conventional matter to dark matter and back again.

When I was a young curious lad the smallest particles we were taught about were the electrons around the nucleus of a atom, then came quarks, nuetrinos, and boson particles, it seems this rabbit hole known as subatomic physics will continue infinitum!
