yes, what's so wrong with that? you don't KNOW any of the things you believe you know. they are not facts.
Yet you put your faith in

actually it HAS proven a lot about where we came from, regardless of what you believe about it, evolution is a proven fact.

not blind faith, logical trust. you're the one utilizing blind faith in your beliefs, not i.

claiming that these hypothesis are TRUE would be scientific bullshit, but as you can see i never claimed them to be true, i merely claimed them as a SCIENTIFIC possibility, which they are, according to our modern understanding of reality. besides, it's spelled as "dimension", and btw, you are wrong in that label, a child/mother universe would NOT be another dimension. neither would a parallel universe be called a dimension. dimensions are things such as height, length, width, time. those are dimensions, unfortunately, popular sci-fi has made it so that generally ignorant people such as yourself call anything outside of our own sense of reality a different dimension, which is quite false.

"dimensions". and yes, the 4th spatial dimension is quite an established fact, as are dimensions beyond that. according to modern superstring theory, our universe consists out of 16 such dimensions (we can only discern 4 of them, the 3 spatial dimensions, and time).
Good. So do I. God can be explained by

that's not a theory, that's not even an hypothesis.

unfortunately this is not completely true, we are 3 (spatial) dimensionsional creatures (even though we exist in more than that), so according to your theory we can not understand the 4th spatial dimension. this is false, we can calculate the 4th spatial dimension and have done so.
even if your hypothesis were to be true, that would not prove OR explain god.

he could through the use of math.

no he would not be a fool, in fact he would be quite intelligent for not blindly believing it. it is quite stupid to believe in something when you can not prove that something, nonetheless, "mr.square" (what a childish name) could, using advanced math (advanced for him anyway), prove the possibility for the cube to exist. but then again, such a being would not really be a god anyway, his "powers" would be the result of the physical universe, which would not be his creation.
but again, we can calculate the 4th dimension and certain anomalies we can explain through the use of 4th dimensional space.

in the beginning? what beginning? why accept that he does exist? this is not accepted except by people like you. in science, we NEVER just "accept" that something exists, this is called doubt, and this is neccesary in such matters to objectively understand and explain them. you have blind faith that god exists and brought everything in creation (as you said: "it's just accepted...") that is rather stupid to be mild. if god created everything, then god is nothing, because otherwise he created himself. does not sound very possible that he created himself. if he created everything (save for himself), he would also have created time, which is an impossibility because the very ACT of creation requires time to exist.
