Atheists & Agnostics

I'm reading Three Body Problem, halfway through book 2. In it, the aliens (trisolarans) stretch a proton out into planet-sized dimensions so they could etch circuitry on it.

Before they get the process right, they accidentally unfold it into the wrong dimensionality, and realize... it's LOOKING at their planet. And then it gets pissed off and forms itself into a giant parabolic mirror and starts burning parts of the planet because essentially the trisolarans were destroying their entire universe, by tearing the proton apart. it was a pretty hilarious error on their part. And thought provoking possibilities.

I'm not against the possibilities of intelligence existing at different scales and different dimensionalities. But I would question any attempts to label it as a 'god', despite that it might be massively more advanced, or have very unfamiliar abilitites/technology
