A possibility on God.

No God before the big bang - Is it not possible that what we could and would perceive as a God was not created before the beginning of the universe but was merely the first thing created. This in no way solves the anthropogenic problem or the prime mover problem but it does allow for a god like figure without an endless regressive loop, and at least for religious folks, of which you know I am not, it allows for a God like figure without having to throw out modern physics.
