Space Time is a piece of jargon that denotes a complex, rigorous, albeit still incomplete concept well outside the intuitive grasp of most people. Instinctively people who are not educated in the sciences feel the can intuit time and space well outside the realm in which their intuition evolved. Herein lies the gap.
Here is where theists, and overweening "philosophers" who fantasize that they know the rules for knowing without having had any experience of actually getting to know, nor any serious examination of what is known and how these came to be known, finds a gap into which they insert god.
This is not a god of the gaps in the sense there is genuinely an area as yet unclaimed by scientific knowledge where an all mighty god fleeing the light of discovery can find an abode.
This is a god of the smoke screens in the sense that overreaching and unscrupulous word play is cast like smoke screen to obscure what is deducible and not deducible based on current state of the art, and theists stands before that smoke screen waving their arms, make spooky sounds, and assert there is a god just behind the screen.
