Let's even call it God, because hey, if it was called Slartibartfast people might laugh at it.

Now what? We have our "God" but what else can we say about it, other than it had the power to bring the known universe into existence? We can't infer anything about its nature, not even that it continued to exist after doing its job: maybe the Big Bang was to God as a supernova is to a dying star? We certainly can't get from First Cause to "God loves you and takes a personal interest in your life unless of course you're homosexual or watch anime" (or, to be fair, that God is invisble, pink, and suspiciously unicorn-shaped).

i literally LOL'ed 2 times at your post. i have nothing to argue, its just that u have a great sense of humor. damn that was funny)
