I think quantum mechanics might be taken as evidence for a god.
The way superpositions of states work, with resolutions permeating back through time or spooky actions at a distance, might be taken as evidence that the Universe knows something about the unfolding of events that we do not have access to. That combined with our absolute inability to describe consciousness in terms of matter, its properties, and its processes, leaves a pretty big gap for a god of the gaps.
We could argue about whether we'd use the word "God" for any of that, but I'd argue that if reality is closely bound to mind, then using that word to remind ourselves of that fact would be fair enough. . . so long as we don't start using the speculative ramblings of ancient desert-dwellers as science texts or choosing who to kill based on some asshole's religious visions.
