Greg Rucka didn't say the Presence is the Judeo-Christian God. Sure, in the Vertigo Universe, he is. But in the DC Universe, this changes.

In Spectre #10 under J.M. DeMatteis' run, the Spectre refers to "The Creator" as "The Divine Presence". However, Mr. DeMatteis has since stated that the Creator is only one aspect of God.

The Presence is the aspect of God that is everywhere, hence the name, but he isn't truly God Himself. The Presence has never been stated within the DC Universe to be the totality of God. This is largely due to Code of Ethics regarding religion within the DC Universe.
