He would and wouldn't simultaneously.

That's because it's a shitty, "GOT YOU NOW, GOD!!!1" topic.

He's a person, too, though, since we're part of everything, eh?

the questions moot, we've already proven in this topic that god is a hot woman.

To be fair, you don't have anything. Clocks are just machines that tick.

Quote from: GreyClock;1172239I read this book by some guy and he said the universe was finite but boundless.

I think what that means is that everything in the universe only goes out so far, but it could keep going because there is no real edge. I believe that the "universe" is really just a large cloud of matter and energy sitting in the middle of infinite nothingness. I don't think you could go past the edge of the universe and then just vanish like "Oh shit, sorry, I didn't know I was already at the edge lol!". You'd keep on going. You'd just be going through absolutely nothing. It would be a lonely voyage. If you were immortal and depended on nothing for sustenance, you might eventually make it to another universe. Of course, this is all just theoretical thinking here.

Anyway, I suppose that I should actually contribute to answering the question at hand, despite the fact that I am an atheist who is considering becoming a fundamentalist Pastafarian.
If God is truly infinite in power, then your question is a logical paradox. If God's power is truly infinite, then He should be able to create anything, and that includes beings exceeding His power level. However, infinite power cannot be exceeded, so the very existence of such a being is impossible. Therefore, there are only two possible answers, and my mind can only really concieve one of them without risking cranial explosion: either God is so powerful that He can defy the laws of logic and create a being of more-than-infinite power, or His power is not truly infinite. To create the illusion of superior power, He could simply create an all-powerful being that is simply willing to use its power. However, that would spell disaster for us all.

Sorry for the long post. I personally think that if there is a God, then He or She is simply a member of a superior race that collects lesser lifeforms and watches them grow, much like humans with ant farms.

Actually, when you reach the end of he universe, you go on until your momentum reaches terminal velocity and you are attracted back into the universe by the collective gravity of everything in it. And you can never really reach another universe in the same space of this one by any definition, or they wouldn't really be universes, now would they? They'd just be supremely huge entity clouds.

He did, actually. His Name was Jesus. :)
