Is anyone familiar with Galactus form Marvel comics? He was a creature left over from the last big crunch. If God exists, it seems reasonable to assume that he has amassed such power because he doesn't age. In the bible, god is described as being without beginning. That would be one metaphor for an entity that has existed since before this incarnation of the universe. If I were such a creature, I might want to use my power to expand my understanding of evolutionary development to better understand my past. That being the case, I might want to experiment ans stifle the development of some intelligent species, and accelerate others. Theism could be an attempt to stifle us.
In other words, the god entity could be as easily from the past as the future. If you prescribe to the idea of circular time, that the universe repeats itself after every big bang, our answer could be one and the same.
