Maybe god knows he's not alone, ya know, overbearing mom, bitchy sister, detached father (this would explain some things). The monotheists down here may not have it right and only talk about the spoiled brat of the family. I guess this kinda takes care of the higher power issue also.
Think Trelane.
Anyway, do these other family members would have universes too? Or do you think they would possess the other planets in this universe?
I guess they could be anything since a God could be whatever the human imagination can come up with.

If it knew it had created itself then it would be a theist and worship itself.Yes good point
If it knew it had always existed then it is probably wondering if it's really omniscient.

Does this mean God would be an atheist?
