Yes, it was meant to be an entertaining list of fun things about Trek. Hence
the sometimes kooky categories.

There were plenty of godlike aliens in TOS. Trelane (Squire of Gothos)
immediately comes to mind. Doing a quick Google search, I see that the Memory
Alpha wiki even has a whole page dedicated to listing "powerful and godlike
beings" in Trek: http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Powerful_and_godlike_beings

When I wrote this category I also had in mind the end of ST:TMP. when V'Ger and
Decker merge to evolve into a "higher" life form.

I like First Contact, but in recent years, I have been convinced by "Red Letter
Media" that none of the TNG movies really captured the spirit of the show.
Picard, in particular, was transformed from a deliberate, thoughtful,
consensus-seaking leader into a vengeful action hero. You might enjoy watching
