I reject this assertion:
You've just bitten a bullet!

In saying that God has the freedom and power to do that which is logically impossible (like creating square circles), you are saying that any discussion of God and ultimate reality cannot be constrained by basic principles of rationality. This would seem to make rational discourse about God impossible. If rational discourse about God is impossible, there is nothing rational we can say about God and nothing rational we can say to support our belief or disbelief in God. To reject rational constraints on religious discourse in this fashion requires accepting that religious convictions, including your religious convictions, are beyond any debate or rational discussion. This is to bite a bullet.

Here's why I( think this is a bogus bullet. If God exists then he can make any geometry he wishes. Logic is a human creation from the mind of man. That which creates existence can shape it in any fashion it wishes whether or not it conforms to human logic. So of course rational discussion about God is impossible. How can one rationally discuss something that is absolutely irrational? It's like having a logical discussion with protist about purple giraffes of Tralfammodore. It ain't within the realm of possibility to discuss that which is totally irrational.

Well that was no surprise. We've been over that before. You keep writing sentences about God and how God is irrational. You should be just stringing meaningless symbols together, or as Wittgenstein said, 'Remain silent.' Given you position I can't see how you could possibly answer any of the questions involving 'God'.

God's voice is the sound of one hand, clapping. I think it is a silly, trivial exercise. But I am here to amuse myself and so, I do.

I don't understand why people bother themselves trying to rationalize God or Gods or whatever. If it is rational it simply cannot be a complete understanding of God. And if it is a complete understanding of God it cannot be rational.

Not unlike attempting to apply what we consider "the laws of physics" to theories of the creation of the universe . . . since the properties of matter, energy, gravity and the like, cannot exist at that moment.
