One thing that I think people should keep in mind when going around and around about whether or not PC's can kill a god is to remember that by the time that the PC's are looking in the gods direction, most of the time they are no longer mortal themselves.
See, 4th ed. introduced Epic Destinies into the game, and imo they are one of the best new additions to the game. Some ED's include:
Prince of Hell- you are becoming an arch-devil.
Darklord- you are becoming a legendary Darklord (like Strahd!)
Ruler of Winter- becoming an Archfey of the Feywild.
Demigod- just what the name implies.
Undying Warrior- An immortal warrior who litterally can't die (unless you choose to).
My point is these arent just prestige classes (to use a 3rd ed. term), or "mere" paragon paths; this is what you were destined for, your becoming. That a party of these mighty beings could take on a god physically is not suprising to me.
