Since Intelligence can be measured and there are different levels. Doesn't that proof without a doubt that an infinite level of intelligence exists.
And since it takes a great deal of intelligence to understand the laws of the universe. Doesn't that proof that our universe was built or created by intelligence?

eri, Yes, but the fact that money exists, suggests that there is a source which the money comes from. This source is infinate and can create as much money as need and more. Our Goverments regulate the amount of money created, but the source is unlimited.

Wow... You use the word "logic" in a very, um, unusual way.
Do you think just maybe it might be apparent from this that you began with your conclusion, and tried hard - and failed miserably - to find a logic that would support it?

There are different levels of wine, that doesn't prove there are infinite levels of them or anything else,it is rather subjective .Keep in mind that intelligence tests are controversial.Intelligence is something dynamic and can grow and adapt itself to the varying circumstances of our lives.I doubt that any standard I.Q.test can measure the full potential of human intelligence .Therefore measuring intelligence cannot prove an infinite level of intelligence.To answer your second question a great deal of intelligence is required to understand the universe because of it's complexity this by itself is not proof of intelligent design.A small child can create a random scribble on a sheet of paper that is very complicated. This does not prove conscious intent to make something complicated.Finally to answer your original question the answer is that it depends on what exactly your definition of god is.Is god a mathematical principle?A person?A thing?etc.To some God is simply everything that exists.If we believe this to be true and if we believe "I think therefore I am " then this could be viewed as logical proof of god's existence since we would be part of everything that is "God".*** I'm sorry but the source of money is not unlimited because there is a finite number of goods and services available to us and so many people in the world that if distributed freely our natural rescources would be gone very quickly.Money is a measure of a finite process of trading goods and services therefore it is not infinite in supply.Also if distributed in unchecked amounts it would be worth nothing the world currency markets would devaluate it.We could use bartering instead.No more money ,therefore no infinite supply.

Argument from Motion according to Thomas Aquinas. When we look around us, we can see that things move. Everything that moves is being put into motion by another and this does not go on 'ad infinitum' indefinitely. There has to be a first mover who is responsible for putting everything into motion. This first mover in itself cannot moved. This unmoved mover is what Christians call God, Muslims 'Allah' and all religions of the world has different names for the unmoved mover.

Nope. Here's an analogy. Money exists, and people have different amounts of it. So someone must have an infinite amount of money, correct? Nope. No one even has a trillion dollars, MUCH LESS an infinite amount. The laws of our universe do not require an intelligence to create them.

No.
You are saying that anything that can be measured must be measured on an infinite scale.
Clearly, that's not so.
Temperature can be measured, but the scale isn't infinite....there's no such things as -5000 degrees below zero.
So, no...your statement doesn't logically follow.
Sorry.

No, because that leads to infinite regress. If intelligence requires intelligence, and God is therefor intelligence, God's cause requires even greater intelligence.

It is now accepted in scientific circles that the universe started wirh a Big Bang. But who or what started the Big Bang process?
The only logical answer is God.

Infinite intelligence has obviously created megatons of ignorance, because everyone has something to prove these days without concrete evidence.

no and youre an idiot for even suggesting that! intelligence is at different levels because of individual preferences. or God would have made each of us "intelligent' as he made each of us with a heart for example....duh!

Religionists start an argument about regression and end it with god. either the regression is infinite or there is no regression.
