So are you saying God could imitate our physicality, and then working within the confines of that physicality jump of the Planet, or would it present a physicality sufficiently large that it could use the planets like stepping stones.

Why did you add the 'unaided' restriction?

You may use whatever specifics you like on this interplanetary jump. It really doesn't matter how it's done.

I added 'unaided' to try and distinguish a logical possibility from a practical one.

Point taken, perhaps I am being a bit facetious, but I would be disappointed in a God that could only do logical possibilities, sounds more like a Marvel Comic character, and with my special boots, I reckon I could take Him.

The "logically possible" thing is really not much of a restriction on power. It just means God can't do things like make square circles. But he could still destroy a universe with a thought.
