I was going to advise him to read a Case for Christ from Stroble, but then his replies to me indicated that he has already looked into Christ and discarded the notion.

>>Not impossible. Just unplausible. When there's no proof of existence, you can say that the nonexistence is plausible.

It's such a construct that is actually another proof of Gödel's thesis, that there can't be any complete logical system, because no logical system can contain proof of its completeness. It needs a meta-system (which then needs a meta-system of its own etc - ad infinitum). Now this god idea is supposed to be so big, so all-encompassing, that it can't be proven or disproven. Which is amazing, considering that it was conceived centuries before Gödel.
