Dear Sam,
It a result of some thinking about string theory. The mechanism for universe creation in black hole singularities is presented in Greene's book "The Elegant Universe" That the kind of chapter and verse I can quote. Books of science are modern scriptures telling us how the world was created. Science as a whole has taken over the scriptures, telling us what is true and what to think.

New universes are new beginnings, for everything derives fundamentally from the unified field inside the black hole singularity, which zeroes out entropy. So the physical universe of electrons and protons begins anew with each new universe.
One speculation (not mine) is that god hitches a ride on the new universe in order to make sure its life forms develop and survive. Thus god for each unverse is made up of the intelligence collected in the mother universe in that black hole singularity.
This view of continuous creation of big bangs from black holes is consistent with string theory as well as the standard theory.
The mechanism for transferring that information, the intelligence of a mother universe into each baby universe was discovered by Greene when he was a post-doc at Harvard. There is a critical ring at the neck of the emerging baby universe where distance to any point in the mother universe is mapped exactly into the inverse distance into the baby universe. Greene showed at a Northeastern Symposium then, 1989, that 2-D symmetry allows for an exact solutions of the string equation, and that the inverse distance duality prevailed.
So I speculate that each baby universe looks pretty much the same as the mother universe. Who knows, maybe the mapping is still happening and what we perceive of as the god is actually the mother universe helping us the develop and survive. This picture is more consistent with Greene's duality. The duality actually applies at every point in space, but its strength is enhanced by collections of energy like particle forms and particularly Bose-Einstein Condensates (BEC), for it is promarily a coherent quantum effect.
