A Quote from The Talos Principle 2
The New Theology
When you are asked, "Where is God? Who is God?" stand up and say, "I am God and here is God, not as yet completed, but still advancing towards completion, just in so much as I am working for the purpose of the universe, working for the good of the whole of society and the whole world, instead of merely looking after my personal ends."

God appears, and God is light,
to those poor souls who well in night,
but does a human form display,
to those who dwell in realms of day.
