Stay with me on this:
1) If God doesn't believe in a HIGHER God, then he is an Atheist
2) God doesn't believe in a HIGHER God.
3) Therefore God is an Atheist.

primoa: Ok, since he can't explain why he's not, is that because you know he is or because you are just not able to?

OK.....I stand corrected, he wouldn't be an "Atheist" as defined by the dictionary. But it is true that he would have no faith in a personal creator or higher god.

It's not about believing in a HIGHER god---it's about believing in God. And God knows WHO He is. He IS God. Your reasoning is wrong.

1. God is not just a Christian concept. Therefore you are beginning with a narrow, biased preconception of God.
2. Higher or lower doesn't come into it unless you are talking about a religion which has multiple Gods. So your basic logic is flawed. I question your ability to count to two.
3. If you are capable of understanding philosophy then you need to think about the precedence of philosophies. Does the statement "I think [I am], therefore I am" apply equally to God? If God had a crisis of faith would the universe cease to exist?
You have a preconceived notion, a poor understanding of logic and little knowledge of philosophy. There is little hope of explaining anything to a person with a closed mind. You are as big a religious zealot as those you try to put down.
Learn more, try again later when you are more open minded and understand what you are asking. Give it a few years.

An atheist is someone who does not believe God exist.
Since God believes he exist, he is not an atheist.
Sorry but not a single dictionary I looked the word up in says "HIGHER" god.

To have a religion you are a human. God is the head of the church. He does not need to belive in anything because he IS God. Notice the "IS". If he wasn't truly God he would believe in something higher. There is only 1 God

Well, the way I see it, an Atheist believes in no God at all. God, I am sure, believes in Himself because, after all He IS God. And He knows it.
I do too.

It shouldn't hurt the followers that god is an atheist. I mean that's god's own business. Why do people get upset? It is just a belief. Let your god have free will too, Christians.

a·the·ist (ā'thē-ĭst) Pronunciation Key
n. One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.
Saying that God is an atheist is like saying that you don't think you exist...it makes no sense.

I see where you're going, but you are wrong.
a·the·ist
n. One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.
If god knows he exists, he can't be an atheist.
It has nothing to do with a "higher" god.

There is no higher power than God. He doesn't believe it - he KNOWs it.

You're right. So how does God explain his creation? How did he come in to existence? Perhaps there's an evolution for the omnipotent too.
