There are very good philosophical arguments for the existence of God or gods. In astrophysics there are logical theories for more than one god: there are valid points, based on the Drake equation, for the existence of Q.
I think that here one must first define what they mean by a god like entity.
One must then also ( which zero here have ) come to terms with one god or more than one god. I mean Poly or mono-a-mono.
OK, heres why I said all that. Stable, fully-formed stars existed just 200 million years after the first singularity. OK, this means those stars had a 13.5 billion year head start on us. OK OK, it seems reasonable to the astronomers who dwell on this stuff that those early alien folks would quite literally seem like gods to us, if they managed to put reason over animal instinct that is. Of course part of that would be getting out beyond their doomed solar system before their dying star or stars puff up then collapse. But that, in itself, would be a god-like act to us, I mean getting off into space, because near light speed is just too slow! In reality, they would need to bend spacetime, or some-such thing we won't be able to do for another exactly 27,829 years. To the human brain, that would be a god-like act. Thus, that's why all the "I'm a confirmed atheist!" stuff one hears just makes one roll their cute little brown eyes. Why? Because current estimates point toward 500 billion ( and still counting! ) galaxies in the universe.
Trust me on this; there are gods in the universe. They probably don't work miracles or give a rat's- about us, as we would about as significant as gnats to them.
