You must have been reading Marshall McLuhan with all that talk of linear thought. Mosaically speaking, God does not exist within time or space since He created them. God sees all things from a non-linear perspective.
That is called special pleading, a logical fallacy. You want an exception for your god. I say that the Invisible Pink Unicorn lives extra-dimensional in a place without time. She created your god on a whim as a child to keep around, who in turn created this universe and the time scale we know. When his playtime is over, god's toy will be dismantled and put back in the toybox. Prove me wrong.
Basically, that's what you just said to me sounded like.
