Good point about Iblis and the Cylons. He isn't allowed to directly interfere in mortal affairs without their permission.
I'm sure there's a lot more about Adama that we don't know about. Senmut for example has an interesting story about Adama's past in the Virtual Second Season episode Bones. However I don't think he was a youth when he practiced ESP at the institute but rather a young man. He does say he was already married to Apollo's mother but it was before their children were born.
Iblis is 'old' enough to know about the rise and fall of Kobol and the 13th tribe's voyage to Earth. His knowledge or the universe isn't infinite (he is a liar) but it is greater. And boy was he full of contempt when talking to Adama about God.
