One day it happens. A super-entity appears on the sky and claims that it is God Himself. How does your scientifically orientated mind react into this situation? There are undoubtedly many thoughts and questions circulating in your head. "Go ahead," a voice reverberates in the minds of every single human being, "I can answer any question that you ask. After all, I am God."

I'd then go from there. Because if God does exist and the Bible (assuming we're talking about the Christian God) is correct, then he has a LOT of explaining to do.

So, is this the Christian God, Shiva, Thor, Anubis, Zeus, Allah, or someone else?

Hang on, this means he doesn't exist, doesn't it?

Because proof denies faith, and without faith God is nothing.

Therefore, by proving he does exist he proves that he doesn't. QED.

I think the fact Allah was worshipped along side other gods by the Arabian tribes shows it can't have always been the same god as the strictly monotheistic (and demanding of it) Yahweh/god of the Jew/Christians. Taking the name 'go'/Allah might conform to that god being the chief god or creator, but the fact allah was part of a pantheon of gods is incompatible with the christian/jew god.

I speak french and we refer to dieu as" Dieu" here.
(dieu is the french translation of "god"). And so it is in every other language.

First, I would ask him to prove to me that He is actually God (perform some divine miracle, or something).
Then I'll ask if He is like the God of the Abrahamic Religions, if so, then are the relgions right/which one is. If not, then which religion is the "most right".
From there, I'll ask to quench my thirst of knowledge. Anything I want to ask. From "why the universe" to "why don't you stop evil" to "is there an afterlife"

Allah pre-Mohamed is still considered as a creator. I suppose that if you want an "in canon" explanation, one could assume Arabs still perceived Allah in a way, and remembered him from the teaching of Ismael (first son of Abraham, the one he had with the servant), and Mohamed just reset thing "right" by telling there was no other than the creator.
