I could accept those fundamentals hypothetically. I put it in terms of God being measurable or immeasurable.
If God is measurable, there is some implication that God can be defined in finite terms.
If God is immeasurable, then there is some implication that God cannot be defined.
But whether God is measurable or immeasurable is redundant in a sort of way. If we look at it from a logical perspective, “God” has definite connotations on any arguments regardless of the facts because of the sheer gravity of the word “God.” It’s not the fact of whether he exists or not, it’s that God, or the word God, expressly implies an all encapsulating truth value, which is that anything God does is possible (or true).
It seems to me that even if we had a truth table with all the truth probabilities of a given statement, assertion of God and the value that term holds, negates any false value because we are coming to grips with an all powerful being in the first place.
