what if is my point.
The only reason the bible is framed out in magic and mysterious God is because bronze age and iron age men wrote it. with a greater understanding comes a clearer and more concise picture of God. God is not nor ever meant to be forever shrouded in mystery. all we are doing here is putting labels or understanding to who and what God is. This does not diminish God in any way just the picture that demands God must remain hidden.
Again what if God is a supremely advanced being. didn't captain picard say any sufficiently advance race would be indistinguishable from god to a less advanced race of beings (clarks 3 laws)
If this being seeded earth or programmed it and this being hit all the high points in the bible legitly, then why wouldn't it be God even if science could label it?
