Suprised no one (including myself) questions the motives behind this nigh-omnipotent being just arbitrarily giving a race as fucked up and selfish as humanity superpowers, essentially giving every person on the planet young and old (by the way, will he give powers to babies, toddlers and children as well?) a nuclear warhead to use at their leisure multiple times. The world will no longer resemble even a shadow of its former self, and while it is reduced to a barren wasteland ( and that's being kind) it's society will be reduced to non-existence.

Is it a deal like The Man Who Could Work Miracles, where a divine being wanted to see humanity join it in the stars? Or is it something darker? Is said entity using these powers as a method to insert itself into a new group of superpowered beings, which would allow it to control them?
