your mr.square story shows a sincere lack of mathematical understanding of the workings of extra-dimensional mechanics, in my mind a 4th spatial dimensionional being could most definitely be understood. and wait a second, if what you say is true, if god cannot exist in my "puny" (it's anything but puny, rest assured) in MY mind, than neither can he in yours, so why believe it in the first place?

we can quite scientifically and quite accurately understand higher levels of existance (quantum mechanics, superstring theory, etc etc), and nowhere do we foresee a need for a god, and nowhere do we see evidence of such a being. you are trying to use your own "faulty" logic, to prove that our logic is "faulty", which is ofcourse ridiculous! you are avoiding your burden of proof for god's existance and all good valid arguments against his existance by saying that god is beyond our understanding and that therefore any logical statement is faulty. this, is an incredibly lame cop-out, and since by your own admission, your logic is deficient, we, as intelligent men, need not listen to your nonsense.
