If we comprehend God, He is not God. Guess what!? You can't comprehend God. We humans think we can because we are simply human, and we are sinful. You know how I know you can't comprehend God? You ask questions like if God is real why did He do this, why did God create the world if He knew it would be sinful, etc. If you could answer all the questions about God, He would not be God. Therefore, since you ask these questions about God, you're proving God exists.

But -- since the god questions have been answered, by science, -- didn't that just prove he does not? Are you cra.....
never mind.
Okay, you believe that humans cannot comprehend God. But you then proceed to tell us what He wants us to do and not to do. He doesn't want us to have gay sex, cheat on our spouses, patronize prostitutes, smoke pot, view pornography. And He wants us to serve him as Christians, not as Muslims, Jews, or Wiccans. But God is incomprehensible, mind you!
Benjamin Franklin called theologians out on this bullshit. He said that the same theologians who talk about God being "beyond human comprehension" will then proceed to analyze God like an entomologist dissecting a beetle.
Here's the secret: God is comprehensible for the clergy and theologians, but when others call them on their contradictions and fallacies, suddenly God moves beyond comprehension (or at least, the comprehension of the theologians' critics!).
"If we comprehend God, He is not God. Guess what!? You can't comprehend God."
Um... that's only true if you comprehend god... and since you can't comprehend god, it's not true.
"Therefore, since you ask these questions about God, you're proving God exists."
Sounds kinda like good old presuppositional apologetics. My favorite kind of idiotic lunacy.
Therefore, since you ... you're proving God exists.
Hey, Jesus is Savior, go down to your local community college and sign up for Logic 101. After about the third class you'll understand - correction: you *should be able to understand* - what's wrong with your argument.
Now let me see:
- I can't comprehend warp drive and ask questions about it, therefore warp drive exists.
etc., etc.
If you could answer all the questions about God, He would not be God.
No. If you could answer all the questions abut God, maybe more people would believe you. But when 1,000 people say "God exists" and then give 1,000 different answers to the questions, it sure sounds like none of them know what the heck they're talking about and are just making stuff up. And when God always seems to agree with their own opinions and prejudices, it makes it even less believable.
<spooky voice> Mysteeerious waaayes!! </spooky voice>
I get so fucking sick of theis mysterious ways clause to justify/excuse all the horrible stuff god allegedly is responsible for.
Being mysterious is not a get-out-of-jail-for-free card. You don't get to kill people and get away with it becouse you are mysterious.
So, if I ask why Anakin Skywalker honestly thought murdering the crap out of a bunch of kids was a good idea, I'm confirming that he actually does (or did) exist in a galaxy far, far away (That would be any of them, I suppose)?
On a related note, if God had a presence here, we'd be able to detect his effect on stuff - like if there truly were a rogue planet about to collide with Earth like some morons believe, we'd notice it's gravitational effect on planets we do know about.
If we could answer all the questions about the Flying Spaghetti Monster He would not be God. Therefore since you ask questions about God, you're proving the Flying Spaghetti Monster exists.
P.S. We ask questions about evolution so what does that tell you?
Lucky for me that I can comprehend God. He's an invisible, non-existent sky fairy, with a keen interest in genocide, sex, and juvenile temper tantrums. Therefore, since I can comprehend Him, He is not God.
Uhh, I more than comprehend your god. He's an attention seeking narcissist whose followers have a real hardcore case of stockholm syndrome.
WAIT! I'VE JUST UNDERSTOOD GOD! I'VE PROVEN THAT HE IS NOT GOD! WE CAN ALL PACK UP AND GO HOME NOW!
Your Biblegod (especially in the Old Testament) = Hitler.
See? I've comprehended him. And seeing as I've not so much as killed just one person in my life, nor do I want to ever...:

...I'm therefore more than infinitely superior to Hitler. So being superior to even your Biblegod is as easy as breathing.
After all, does it not say in his own Ten Commandments 'Thou shalt not kill'? And it means exactly : no termination of any sentient life under any & all circumstances, otherwise it would've been specific in it's instruction ('killing'. 'murder' being supposed 'differences', as per Bible apologetics), would it not...?!
Therefore, seeing as I've never committed the ultimate sin - taking away the life of another sentient - thus I am proven to be more than infinitely superior to even God himself. Therefore God is comprehended, ergo by your logic, God doesn't exist. QED.
Peh, who needs Babel Fish?! [/Douglas Adams] X3
Confused?
