Was God an Alien?

No, this is not an Erich von Daniken theory about chariots and spaceships. I was thinking, there are really only two viable ideas about the origin of the universe. One, which comes out of quantum theory, is spontaneous generation, a fluctuation in the vacuum, something for nothing. The second is God. In the first version, you don't need a Creator; in the second, you do. Attached though I am to quantum theory, as an author, I feel a kind of sneaking fondness for the Author idea. I don't want to trash anyone else's idea of God, but if you ask a physicist (as I do from time to time, particularly because my twin brother is a rocket scientist), one plausible answer you might get is this: God is an extremely sophisticated alien. The argument goes like this. It is now possible for us to imagine ways to create a universe. Basic ingredients: one black hole and an unlimited amount of energy (well beyond anything we can come up with). I think Michio Kaku talks about 'Type III' (or possibly IV) civilizations being capable of something along these lines. But if you can go about seeding new universes, then it is possible that the one we currently occupy was indeed manufactured by some extremely powerful civilization, obviously in a different universe. If this totally hypothetical scenario - unfalsifiable, so far as I can make out - is correct, then it looks unlikely that 'God' (ie this other unknown race of advanced beings) would be able to intervene in subsequent developments. On the other hand, what if it were possible to feed back signals from the new universe next door? If that turns out to be feasible, then there is a danger - I only mention it as a possibility - that what we talk about as 'reality' is in fact an extremely complicated reality tv show for aliens.
