He thought/believed that God was likely a multi-dimensional traveler and happened upon a void in his many travels. Using the technology of his race, he created a massive explosion with all the elements necessary to create life. He of course, did not actually know whether or not his little experiment would create intelligent life, nor would he ever see or know humans as we are today. Basically, he believes God was an alien who died billions of years ago and we are just one of many many universes.
Now of course, he has absolutely no evidence for such a theory, but than again, neither does the Bible. If he wrote down and heavily embellished this theory of his and then said it was divinely presented to him, could it not be the religion of the day 2000 years from now?
It would be interesting to see if any theist or deist was satisfied with a deity of this sort. I suspect many will insist one intimiately concerned with each and every moral choice you confront, who celebrates your victories and keeps tabs on you guffaws.
