Evolution is a lower form taking on a higher form of complexity. What if God evolved on a firey radioactive planet, or has evolved a higher state than our own by which he has mastered technologies capable of creating and destroying planets, and populating them at His own will.

IOW your god is just an incredibly advanced being but nevertheless every bit as much of an entity of this universe as anyone else and thus no more right to be "God" than any other (ecpet by being the "biggest baddest bully" in the universal playground).

In essence this is the argument I heard from Michael Shermer (although I think it may originally be attributed to Arthur C. Clark) ...

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic"

Big whoop!
